CRIP 2 |
| Description: |
In June 1957, the engine was required by Union Pacific, who ran it on the City of Las Vegas route. UP was dissatisfied with it, though, and the Rock Island purchased it the next year. |

CRIP 2 |
| Description: |
Though the engine could go over 80 mph, its power was insufficient on steep grades - railroads out west that experimented with the model, such as UP and ATSF, needed helper engines on portions of the route. |

Ultimately, this engine and its sister ran trains between Chicago and Joliet, but they were retired in 1966, at which time they went to museums. Railroads might not have liked them, but they do look cool! |

CRIP 302 |
| Description: |
The coaches were built with modified bus bodies. This was supposed to make them cheaper to produce, as the body could be put on an existing undercarriage. Unfortunately, the coach's shock absorbers failed at high speeds, leading to a bumpy ride. |
