We try to be Friendly to our international customers especially with our: UPS Standard to Canada,Chessie was a popular cat character used as a symbol of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway (C&O). Derived from an etching by Viennese artist Guido Grünewald, the image first appeared in a black and white advertisement in the September 1933 issue of Fortune magazine with the slogan “Sleep Like a Kitten.” The advertisement makes no mention of the cat’s name. When the ad generated a positive response, the railroad developed an advertising campaign around the image and chose the name Chessie as a derivation of the railroad’s name. The promotion proved widely popular and, in addition to national print advertising, grew to include calendars, clothing, and even two children’s books about the character. Chessie’s mate was Peake, who was introduced in the June 1937 issue of Life magazine and was the father of her two kittens, “Nip” and “Tuck”. During World War II, the Chessie character was used to promote War Bonds and support for the war effort, depicted as working on the home front to support Peake, who was off to war. The Chessie image continued to appear in advertising until 1971 when passenger train travel was consolidated under Amtrak. ** Wikipedia Chessie System, Inc. was a holding company that owned the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway, the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, the Western Maryland Railway, and several smaller carriers. Headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, the Chessie System was the creation of Cyrus S. Eaton and his protégé Hays T. Watkins, Jr., then president and chief executive officer of C&O. A chief source of revenue for the Chessie System was coal mining in West Virginia. Another was the transport of auto parts and finished motor vehicles. The Chessie System itself did not own any locomotives or other rolling stock; rather, equipment would be placed on the roster of one of the three component railroads. While all three companies shared a common paint scheme of yellow, vermillion, and blue, actual ownership of the equipment was denoted by the reporting marks C&O, B&O, or WM.There were two main classes of F7s: passenger and freight; most passenger units had upper and lower headlights, but this wasn’t always the rule. Many freight units had the lower Mars or Pyle brand warning light as well but the front end “cinched” inward right where the coupler protrudes so the coupler was “fixed” and could not retract the extra space was there to make room for the coupler and brake hoses. {The FT Diesel was based on the “Rock Island Rocket” earlier TA Diesel designed and manufactured by EMC in 1937 prior to General Motors buying the company; see the last photo} Also note the lack of a visible front ‘pilot’ coupler this is one of those rare photos showing the front coupler retracted with the “pilot doors” closed a capability of later “EMD F Series Locomotives” an FP-A diesel locomotive was special built to be a Passenger Locomotive, whether it be an FT, F3, F7, or an F9 GM Electro-Motive Division {EMD} The EMD F7 was 1,500 horsepower diesel electric locomotive produced between February 1949 and December 1953 by the Electro Motive Division of General Motors and General Motors Diesel. This locomotive was originally promoted by EMD as a freight hauling unit, the F7 was also used in passenger service. The F7 was the fourth model in GM-EMD’s successful line of F unit locomotives and is by far the best-selling cab unit of all time. It succeeded the EMD F3’s, but was replaced by the EMD F9’s. Many F7’s remained in service for decades, as railroads found them economical to operate and maintain. There was a total of 2,366 cab equipped lead A units and 1,483 cabless booster or B units built. Cab arrangements vary by builder and operator. Practice in the U.S. has traditionally been for a cab at one end of the locomotive with limited visibility if the locomotive is not operated cab forward. This is not usually a problem as U.S. locomotives are usually operated in pairs, or threes, and arranged so that a cab is at each end of each set. European practice is usually for a cab at each end of the locomotive as trains are usually light enough to operate with one locomotive. Early U.S. practice was to add power units without cabs (booster or B units) and the arrangement was often A-B, A-A, A-B-A, A-B-B, or A-B-B-A where A was a unit with a cab. Center cabs were sometimes used for switch locomotives.To see all our listings, visit: Ika’s Train StoreNote #1: I will combine shipping for multiple items.
