This SW1200 is seen switching the yard opposite Union Station from the 21st St. bridge on May 1, 1966.

The 1217 is seen again a the freight yard opposite Union Station, this time in the red colors and with a Frisco open top tri-level auto rack. Amtrak has been in business for 5.5 months so there is little passenger traffic here any more.

I shot this SW900 out the rear window of the Abe Lincoln parlor obs as we left St. Louis and crossed Merchants Bridge over the Mississippi River.

This SW1200 was shot in St. Louis on August 29, 1966.

This switcher is working the freight yard across from Union Station.

This pair is seen in Brooklyn, IL on May 31, 1975.
