RAILROADS<br />

THE MILWAUKEE ROAD<br />

The EMD FP7A was essentially<br />

an F7A extended by four feet<br />

to provide more water for the<br />

steam generator needed to<br />

heat passenger trains.<br />

Replicating FP7A cab and<br />

F7B booster units employed<br />

in Milwaukee Road passenger service, these DCC-ready, HO scale lo<strong>com</strong>otives<br />

– part of Athearn’s top-of-the-line Genesis series – feature a powerful<br />

motor with dual flywheels for exceptional performance, a finely molded body<br />

with photo-etched metal detail parts, glazed porthole windows, a die cast<br />

chassis, and an authentic Milwaukee Road paint scheme. The A-unit also<br />

has an operating headlight and a detailed cab interior with glazed windows.<br />

Diesels of the Milwaukee Road<br />

Gruber. Due to financial insecurity, firstgeneration<br />

diesel lo<strong>com</strong>otives survived<br />

longer on the Milwaukee Road than on<br />

neighboring <strong>railroads</strong>, providing trackside<br />

observers a chance to see the<br />

newest EMD and GE models working<br />

alongside Alco, Baldwin and Fairbanks-<br />

Morse power. Filled with hundreds of rare<br />

Although the Iowa, Chicago &<br />

changed the face of the former Milwaukee Road<br />

lines in Illinois and Iowa. This program tours the<br />

IC&E’s routes from Chicago to Savanna, Illinois,<br />

all-EMD roster powering trains across the<br />
