    Dash 8-40B at Corwith

    One of my favorite Diesel classes of the Santa Fe. She's having a walkway light bulb changed while being serviced at Corwith Yard sometime in the mid-90's. Those were great days. Bring a box of donuts up to the tower, sign a release, be a good citizen and you're welcome on the property.

    Memories of Corwith Yard.

    Back in the "good old days" you could drive right up to the tower at Corwith Yard on Chicago's near south side walk up the stairs, ask for a release and if you followed the rules and respected the privilege of being there, you were welcome to take pictures anywhere the rules allowed...

    Units waiting for service at ATSF's Corwith Yard in August,1989. The friendliest people worked for the Santa Fe. Just go up to the tower and sign a release, don't cross any tracks, watch your step and have a great day!
