ATSF 104 & 105 slow to a stop at Joliet Union Station where they will uncouple from their train and run around to the rear for a return to Corwith, in Chicago. They are handling an employee passenger special that made trips back & forth this day to Joliet. Certainly a pleasant way to spend the day.
The Santa Fe's warbonnet paint scheme on passenger diesel locomotives was one of the most iconic in railroading. It appealed to travelers and modellers alike, and helped brand Santa Fe all the way from Chicago to California and Texas.
