AEOLUS, CB&Q's #4000 Zephyr Diesel Substitute |
Description: |
Built by Baldwin as 3002 in 1930. The shroud was added (number changed and she received a name) in 1937 so AEOLUS could substitute for Zephyr diesels. A handful of other 3000 series locomotives were also shrouded and renumbered into the 4000 series. I assume once the Q acquired enough passenger diesels the shrouds came off. The smoky sky in the photo was no doubt added in the darkroom. I bought this slide years ago. |

CB&Q 4-6-4 Class S-4-A 4000 AEOLUS |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad c4-6-4 Cass S-4-A 4000, named AEOLUS, at Burlington, Iowa on an unknown date in 1937, photographer unknown, print from Don Gruber, Chuck Zeiler collection. The name AEOLUS is from a Greek god, the Keeper of the Winds. The Burlington had adopted a Greek mythology theme by choosing Zephyr for their trains, the last word in passenger service. Some of you may wonder about the name, and the following is from the Burlington Route Historical Society's Bulletin 14, AEOLUS, by Hol Wagner: To the crews that operated and serviced locomotives, the Greek and Roman mythological names adopted by the Burlington seemed quite a mouthful, particularly the names of some of the Twin Cities cars like Psyche, Minerva, and Ceres. But when the first of the steamlined Hudsons was christened AEOLUS in the Spring of 1937, it was just too much. Almost immediately, the crews modified the masculine Greek AEOLUS into the much simplier feminine English ALICE. The name stuck with the common man and was quickly expanded upon. Back in 1934 a strange apparition had been added to the extremely popular Popeye comic strip: Alice The Goon. As originally drawn, the Goon was an unclothed, hairy monster which uttered utterly incomprehensible noises and was very successful at terrifiying small children. Consequently, Alice The Goon was withdrawn from the strip after a period of public outcry about the character's frightening nature - but not before the term Goon had caught on. Parents admonished their children, 'Be good, or the Goon will get you!' Alice, though frightening to childern, had become quite popular, and she was soon returned to the comic strip in a more acceptable form, clothed in a polka dot blouse and skirt and wearing a hat with a perky flower. Her utterings were still incomprehensible, but she was now much less frightening - so much so that she assumed the role of little Swee' Pea's babysitter. The nickname 'Alice The Goon' and 'Big Alice The Goon' seemed somehow appropriate for the two streamlined locomotives, and for the rest of their shrouded careers they were most commonly known by either of those two monikers, or simply as Alice. |

CB&Q Aeolus 4000 |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad class S-4-A 4000 named Aeolus, eastbound at Aurora, Illinois on an unknown day in August 1937, photo by Baldwin Locomotive Works, Chuck Zeiler collection. The following is from the Burlington Route Historical Society's Bulletin 14, AEOLUS: Alice blasts out of the Aurora depot on the last leg of the journey to Chicago with an American Legion special train from Denver in August or September 1937 - Baldwin photo. Not obvious is another train pulling into the station, only the smoke plume at track level in the left background gives it away, but on close inspection it appears to possibly be another section of this train, lead by a conventional S-4. |

CB&Q 4-6-4 Class S-4-A 4000 |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 4-6-4 Class S-4-A 4000 at Denver, Colorado on February 26, 1938, photograph by Dick Kindig, Chuck Zeiler collection. The following is from the Burlington Route Historical Society's Bulletin 14, AEOLUS, by Hol Wagner: On the evening of February 25, 1938, Aeolus 4000 departed Chicago Union Station with Train No. 1, the Denver Zephyr. Nearly 1,000 miles west, railfan Joe Schick learned that 'Alice' was coming his way from his hometown depot agent/operator in Keenesburg, Colorado on the mainline some 37 miles north-east of Denver. Early the next morning, Schick called fellow railfans Dick Kindig and Otto Perry in Denver to alert them, then headed out west of Keenseburg to capture the 4000 speeding by at 85 mph. By the time Kindig could get down to Denver Union Station on his way to work, No. 1 had already arrived, and Dick captured this view of the locomotive easing off its train and down Track 1 before backing over to the Q's 23rd Street roundhouse for servicing. |

Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 4-6-4 Class S-4-A 4000 at Galesburg, Illinois on July 1, 1956, photographer unknown, print by Don Gruber, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 4000 was built by Baldwin in October 1930 (c/n 61500) as Class S-4 number 3002. It was rebuilt at West Burlington, Iowa to Class S-4-A, entering the shops in late 1936 and completed in April 1937. When completed, the locomotive was shrouded in stainless steel and named Aeolus to serve as standby power for Zephyr trains. The shrouding was removed in 1940-41, revealing the locomotive seen here, donated to LaCrosse, Wisconsin for display on August 19, 1963. |
