CB&Q SW1 #9153 spent years working jobs around Aurora, IL. This continued when she became BN 97 after the 1970 merger. She was built in 1941. The last pictures of her I could find of her were taken last year as Independent Locomotive Service (ILSX) #1366 working in Bottineau, ND. The CB&Q Historical Society show six CB&Q SW1s still active. WOW! That's a lot of cars switched.
