Caption: “Robert A. Newbegin caught up with one of The Milwaukee Road’s six iconic F7 Hudson steam locomotives, as it waits out the scrapper’s torch on a sunny late winter’s afternoon in Bensenville. Six of these handsome locomotives were built for the Milwaukee, by American Locomotive Company in 1938 and scrapped in 1951.”
