CB&Q 9060         
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad Detector Car 3 and Tow Car 9060 at Naperville, Illinois on June 11, 1963, photograph by Chuck Zeiler. Rail Detector Car 3 contained a small diesel engine and testing apparatus to detect rail defects. Tow Car 9060 was built in 1951 on a chassis supplied by Buda, powered by a Buda 150hp diesel engine connected to a Fuller Company transmission and mechanical drive system. The carbody was fabricated by Jacob Press & Company, and the components were assembled in CB&Q's Aurora Shops. It was built to replace Tow Car 9040, a Buda "school bus" built in 1940.

Chuck Zeiler General I lived in the house pictured at the left. I witnessed many Burlington incidents, including burning gondolas, parked on the crossing pictured so the local fire department could put the fire out. I have crappy photos of the incident. I'll scan them. 9/1/2019 11:41:47 PM
