Said to be the only remaining locomotive run by Casey Jones. Not sure when or where here, possibly Homewood Shops near Chicago in the 1950s:http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?april04/04-25-04/IC201MacOwenColl.jpg |

This locomotive is preserved and on display at the Illinois Railway Museum and featured on the 2005 museum calendar.Both the locomotive and Casey Jones operated in IC Chicago commuter service so that is the connection with him operating the engine. Later, of course, he moved to fame as a road engineer on the Illinois Central.Bob Kutella |
