Chicago & Eastern Illinois E9A 1102, F3B 935B and E7A 1101 are moments away from a late afternoon departure from Dearborn Station with the combined Georgian/Humming Bird in October 1967. The C&EI purchased E7A's 1100-1102 in 1946, unit 1102 was wrecked in 1958 and was traded in for an E9A of the same number. Photo from my collection, no photographer's name listed on slide.
