kool beans on the loco pic Erich
I can see the eyes nose & grining mouth on that loco
Didn't Burlington have a similar one?
Also streamlining a steamer does make it more difficult to work on than a non one

Chicago & Eastern Illinois Railroad
Reason you can't find a steamliner with BN cause it was started in 1971
Try Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad
