Summary

[edit]
Description

Photo of a Zephyr coach on a flat car leaving the Budd Company plant. The steam locomotive is from the Pennsylvania Railroad. The car has a banner attached to it saying it's a Burlington Zephyr from the Budd Company.

It was probably on its way to the Burlington as this has now been proven to be an additional car for the Pioneer Zephyr. File:Fourth Pioneer Zephyr car 1935.JPG. This car was being built by Budd at the same time the copany was building the Mark Twain Zephyr, also for the Burlington.
Date This was stamped with the company's ID but not dated. It appears to have been taken circa June 13, 1935, as there's a photo of the car in the Budd plant taken on that day.
Source eBay item
Author Edward Budd Company, Philadelphia. The company's name was applied with a seal to the lower right corner. It's not very visible but we have another Budd built Flying Yankee train photo with the mark for comparison.
Permission
(Reusing this file)
Copyright not renewed.
  • Since I couldn't view the backs of the photos to look for copyright marks, a search was done for renewals in the artwork category, where photos are listed, for the years 1962 and 1963. There were no listings for the Edward Budd Company, Budd Company or any variations. There were also no listings for the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad or any variations (Burlington) of it. The Burlington was the owner of the train built by Budd.
  • While I believe the photos were never copyrighted, I have chosen to license this as copyright not renewed to be certain of a correct license.
