The image shows a red and white locomotive with the words "Illinois Central Gulf" written on the side. The locomotive is numbered 9637 and appears to be a diesel locomotive. It is parked on a railway track with a blue sky in the background. There are two other locomotives visible in the image, one red and one white. The red locomotive on the left is slightly larger than the white one on the right. There is a street lamp on top of the locomotive and a few trees and buildings in the distance. The image appears to have been taken on a sunny day.
