Remarks & Notes 
ATSF 117 leads an A-A-B set of GP60M/GP60B units eastbound on a Q train as it rounds the curve at Ancona and heads north toward Streator, IL on its race to Chicago's Corwith Yard. The Super Fleet of Santa Fe led the railroad industry in class as they brought high speed reliable intermodal handling between Chicago, Los Angeles & San Francisco. Santa Fe was a late bloomer to double stacks.
