Title:  ATSF 33L - La Mirada, CA - 2/70

Here a Santa Fe San Diegan blasts through La Mirada on its way to Los Angeles from San Diego. Lead engine F3A 33L would later be rebuilt into ATSF CF7 2614.

CBQ 125A
Title:  CBQ 125A
Description:  An A-B-B-A set of F3 diesels gets road grime washed off in Galesburg, Illinois, on a sunny October 1959 day. F3A 125-A must have been the trailing unit of the set, as the engines coupler cover is still open (and lead unit 117-A had its coupler cover closed). Burlingtons freight F-units wore this simple, yet attractive, light gray scheme, while the passenger Fs were painted silver. (Frank "Woody" Woodburn photo, Craig Walker collection)
