Chicago Burlington & Quincy E5A 9911A "Silver Pilot" gleams in the sun, along with a train of restored Italic Nebraska Zephyr cars, at the EMD factory 75th anniversary open house in La Grange, IL. The E5 was built in 1940 and 1941 by EMD only for the CB&Q and its subsidiaries Colorado & Southern and Fort Worth & Denver. This locomotive and train is the pride of its owner, the Illinois Railroad Museum of nearby Union, IL.
