According to the CB&Q Locomotive Assignment Sheet dated August 1, 1940, this locomotive was assigned to the Galesburg Division.

Mike Woodruff General Great photo, Chuck. Pretty sure that's Peoria Union Station. 3/27/2015 10:49:10 AM
Chuck Zeiler General Thanks Mike, since the photo was unmarked, I took a guess based on assignment. I'll change it to Peoria. 3/28/2015 11:19:57 AM
