While the subject of this photo is obviously Milwaukee Road U25B 5056, as far as we're concerned it's upstaged by the locomotive on the far right. Yes, that's the 5057 sneaking into this picture of the 5056.
What makes this photograph particularly notable is that it shows the only two surviving, intact Milwaukee Road General Electric locomotives. The 5056 is part of the collection at the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, IL.
The two locomotives were photographed in Portland, OR on September 29, 1979 by an unidentified photographer.
