IATR Steeple Cab #30 - Iowa Terminal RR
Title:  IATR Steeple Cab #30 - Iowa Terminal RR
Description:  Built by McGuire in 1915, this little steeple cab has led an interesting life. Built for the Charles City Western Rwy (CCW) as their #300, it was part of the Iowa Terminal RR purchase of the CCW in 1963 and renumbered as #30 for the Charles City electrified section. On May 15, 1968, an F5 tornado went through Charles City, destroying the line’s overhead wires. The ITR decided not to restore the overhead but to “dieselize” the Charles City Division. Motors #53, #30, and Car #101 were transferred to Mason City and basically put into storage. Eventually Motor #30 was sold to the Illinois Railroad Museum, where it is in the final stages of restoration as CCW #300. Specs - 32 ft long, 9'3" wide, engine weight of 7,000 lb, 4 GE 205E motores. No photographer and date is approximate.

TIRR Steeplecab #75 - Toledo & Indiana RR
Title:  TIRR Steeplecab #75 - Toledo & Indiana RR
Description:  Interesting and rare photo of a Toledo & Indiana RR steeplecab. The concept behind the Toledo & Indiana was to link Toledo, Indianapolis & Chicago by interurban rail. Begun as the Toledo & Indiana Rwy, it eventually evolved into the Toledo & Indiana RR. Eventually it was controlled by Cities Services Co after 1926. The interurban section was abandoned in 1939. No exact date in 1937 was given nor was a location or photographer for the photo.

COFC
Title:  COFC
Description:  But not the kind youre thinking of-this is more like Car On Flat Car. Among the more unusual(to Americans) things they do in Europe is to put highway vehicles on the train for the trip through the Alps. There are several rail tunnels, including some of the longest in the world, through the mountains. Roads, not so much. Im not sure if the steeple cab is road power, or a station switcher.

GRRY 228
Title:  GRRY 228
Description:  Grand River Railway 228 at Charles City, Iowa on an unknown day in August 1965, Kodachrome by unknown photographer, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 228 was built in 1921 by the Preston Car Company in Preston, Ontario, Canada for the Grand River Railway. The company built two locomotives (#'s 226 and 228) for the GRRY, basically a lower roof, higher hood version of the Baldwin-Westinghouse Class D. The GRRY ceased electric operations on October 1, 1961 and the 228 went to the Iowa Terminal Railway, Mason City, Iowa in July 1963. However, the motor was never repainted or used (was to become Iowa Terminal 82) and was scrapped in 1968.
