US Foods reaches contract agreement with Teamsters union, ending strike threat.

Drivers represented by Teamsters Local 705 began an unfair labor practices (ULP) strike on 8 January at the US Foods distribution center in Bensenville after weeks of contentious contract negotiations, the union said. “With this strike, the Teamsters have struck a blow that will resonate throughout corporate America,” Teamsters Warehouse Division Director and Teamsters Central Region International Vice President Tom Erickson said. “US Foods Teamsters held the line until they secured the contract they deserved. Workers in the food service and grocery industry are organizing with the Teamsters like never before to hold greedy employers accountable.”

On the way back to Indiana from Milwaukee, I grabbed a few shots in the Chicago area. I believe these two images might have been taken in Bensenville where the Milwaukee Road had engine facilities.

Of the several F-units here, we see 104C the best—it's an EMD FP7 built for the road with this same number in 1952. It has been preserved at the Illinois Railway Museum, awaiting restoration.

Two images by Richard Koenig; taken February 27th 1977.
