BURLINGTON 4-8-4 ON THE OREGON LOCAL FREIGHTI actually shot this on a fan trip out of Chicago -- seven passenger cars and a gondola for fans were coupled to the Oregon, Illinois turn which did the normal switching along the way. In other words it was a mixed train for those who could afford the trip fare of $8.00. The locomotive is O-5 5632 which was still in excursion service after regular steam operation ended.
