Kato N 106-090 Chicago Burlington and Quincy CB&Q EMD E5 Diesel Locomotive DCC Ready and 5 Passenger Cars 'Silver Streak Zephyr' - 6 Unit Set
Prototype Information
To call the ‘Silver Streak Zephyr’ famous before its time would be to do the all-corrugated, slick stainless steel train a disservice. Named after a movie of the same name which featured the CB&Q’s distinctive corrugated equipment, the ‘Silver Streak Zephyr’ and its specially built EMD E5A ‘Silver Bullet’ was a short distance luxury train that operated between Lincoln, Nebraska and Kansas City with stops in Omaha and St. Joseph.
Like the train it pulled, the EMD E5A was a unique piece of equipment - specially built just for the CB&Q so that they could have a locomotive which matched their Budd built corrugated cars, the EMD E5A was wrapped in shining stainless steel and ribbed with corrugated fluting that gave the CB&Q’s trains an unmatched streamlined look.
