Chicago Aurora & Elgin 431 is passing the Nebraska Zephyr at the Illinois Railway Museum. No. 431 was built in 1927 by the Cincinnati Car Company.
Illinois Railway Museum’s Nebraska Zephyr is an articulated streamlined train built entirely of stainless steel. The train is known as the “Train of the Goddesses” because each of its five cars is named after a classical deity. It is the only complete Zephyr train from the Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad in operation today.
The Nebraska Zephyr was constructed by the Budd Company of Philadelphia in 1936.
