Nostalgia & History > ATSF 301CDate: 08/01/22 10:40 ATSF 301C Author: refarkas Mike Ondecker and I were in Joliet almost fifty years ago (actually August 12, 1972) when I photographed this westbound at 10.24 A.M. According to Mike's notes, on the point are ATSF 301C, 321A, 313, and 313B.

Probably not long before it was discontinued for good. Posted from iPhone Date: 08/01/22 13:20 Re: ATSF 301C Author: monaddave Hou74-76 Wrote:

Through Joliet mid-late morning (sun angle in photo), No. 19 got to Emporia just before sunset. It came off just after Labor Day 1972.

RC Lundgren Elgin, TX Date: 08/01/22 14:50 Re: ATSF 301C Author: ATSFSuperCap Ya, I think it is the AmChief #19 also. I rode #20 LA to CHI and some time latter came home on 17. I also saw it and got a picture of it in lower Crozier around Valentine and the consist looked just like this one.
