CB&Q NW2 9413A
Title:  CB&Q NW2 9413A
Description:  CB&Q NW2 9413A at West Burlington, Iowa on September 29, 1963, photo by Chuck Zeiler. It's almost not fair to call this a locomotive, even the horn has been removed. It was built as a TR2A during November 1949 (c/n 8508), mated with cabless TR2B 9413B, the last TR2 set of 14 (9400A&B through 9413A&B). The TR2's were broken up in 1954, and the B-units were returned to EMD for installation of cabs. They were re-classed as NW2's by the CB&Q, and were the only NW2's on the system with MU&capability. It became BN 572 and was retired September 1983.
