Remarks & Notes 
Milwaukee Road commuter trains pass each other during the morning commute at Chicago Union Station. The F40Cs were some of the first new generation diesel locomotives purchased with public funds to help Chicago commuter roads replace aging Fs and E units. By the time this photo was taken Milwaukee was also using some RTA F40PHs, as was CNW. BN was still using their rebuilt E8/9s.
