That F unit has definitely seen better days. Very good vantage point shot.

This is a terrific shot during one of Milw. Rd's most interesting era's. I wish I could go back for a bit!

Excellent photo. The F unit lost some grillwork.

Great Shot, but the EPA would have a STROKE over the Oil and Diesel soaked ground if that were today !!!

Not one, but TWO units numbered 103A in the same shot-and an FM switcher too. That's like catching bigfoot and the Easter bunny in the same photo.

Bob,you hit the RR lottery. Agree with Tom, two 103A units and GM&O 103. It gets better. GM&O 103 was used in the 1967 Film,IN the Heat of the Night with Sidney Portier. Both opening and closing scenes and at the depot. Shot at Sparta IL. GM&O depot still stands as an art gallery/museum. You hit the jackpot with this fine shot.
