C&NW F3 201
Title:  C&NW F3 201
Description:  Employee North Western Owned F3 201 at Minneapolis Junction, Minneapolis, Minnesota on May 23, 1984, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in October 1947 as CGW F3 101C (c/n 4118) on EMD Order E762, acquired by the C&NW in the 1968 merger, was renumbered to (3rd) 201 in 1971. It is listed at utahrails.net as retired in June 1985, traded to EMD and scrapped by Saint Louis Auto Shredding. The actual retirement date may have been earlier, judging by the trash bags covering the exhaust stacks and what appears to be missing batteries.

MONON F3 203
Title:  MONON F3 203
Description:  Monon F3 203 at Pullman Junction on the south side of Chicago, Illinois on April 20, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Officially the CI&L (Chicago Indianapolis & Louisville), Monon F3 203 was delivered as CI&L 82A, completed in May 1947 (c/n 4455). It is a bit unusual in that it has three portholes and Farr Aire grills. One of the spotting features of a Phase I F3 is three portholes on the A units, but it certainly was not delivered with Farr Aire grills, so one assumes this was a railroad modification.

Monon F3 203
Title:  Monon F3 203
Description:  Monon F3 203 at Pullman Junction on the south side of Chicago, Illinois on April 20, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Officially the CI&L (Chicago Indianapolis & Louisville), Monon F3 203 was delivered as CI&L 82A, completed in May 1947 (c/n 4455). It is a bit unusual in that it has three portholes and Farr Aire grills. One of the spotting features of a Phase I F3 is three portholes on the A units, but it certainly was not delivered with Farr Aire grills, so one assumes this was a railroad modification.

It is pictured in charge of the daily Train Number 6, 'The Thoroughbred', running between Chicago and Louisville, Kentucky. It is seen here at Pullman Junction, and if it is on schedule, it's a little after noon. It departed Louisville at 6:30 AM, and is due in at Dearborn Street Station at 1:05 PM. According to the June 1965 Official Guide, 'Monon Passenger Trains Are Completely Air-Conditioned", and feature Reclining Seat Coaches; sandwiches, coffee, and soft drinks served between Bloomington and Chicago'. The southbound train of the same name was Number 5, departing Chicago at 5:25 PM, arriving at Louisville at 2:10 AM, a 324 mile run. This paint scheme was called the 'Purdue' paint scheme, the same colors of the Purdue University football team.

Monon 205
Title:  Monon 205
Description:  Monon F3A 205 was built as the 83A in May 1947 and was photographed at the Louisville & Nashville’s Gentilly Yard in New Orleans. This was eight years before the Monon was merged into the L&N, so the unit must have been on a short term lease.

C&NW F3 210
Title:  C&NW F3 210
Description:  Chicago and North Western Railway F3 210 at Des Moines, Iowa on February 19, 1981, photo by Ken Kessler, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 210 was built in March 1948 as CGW F3 112A (c/n 5014) on EMD Order E858, was acquired by the C&NW in the 1968 merger, was C&NW 112A until 1971 when it was renumbered to (2nd) 210, retired in June 1985, traded to EMD and scrapped by Saint Louis Auto Shredding. It was built by EMD with D27B traction motors, heavier cables, and higher capacity traction motor blowers, but was otherwise an F3. Some sources refer to this as an F5, however EMD never cataloged a model F5.
