Nostalgia & History > Erie-Lackawanna-Chicago 1967

June 9 1867-Dearborn Station-Chicago IL-Erie Lackawanna train arrives.

---

By 1967 the only train was the Hoboken - Chicago Lake Cities.  Based on the April 30, 1967 timetable it was due to arrive at Dearborn at 4:10 pm. 

Nice shot! That was train no. 5, the Lake Cities from Hoboken, NJ. It was handled by the passenger train crews who worked Huntington-Chicago-Marion-Huntington. Huntington based engine crews worked to and from Chicago.  On the west side of that E-L RR passenger train was the old Santa Fe Railway train 15 the Texas Chief to Houston, TX which was handled by the Fort Madison, IA based passenger train and engine  crews that worked to and from Chicago.
