CSS 803 - Chicago South Shore & South Bend   Contributor's Pick!       
Affectionately known as a "Little Joe" after the order for these units was cancelled by Russia by Joseph Staline, this 1949 GE double ended loco pulls a string of freight just east of the CSS shops in Michigan City, IN. Two years later, this unit will be saved from the scrap yard by the Illinois Rwy Museum in Union, IL, where it has been fully restored. Unknown photographer.
