EMD FP-7
In 1951 the CGW received two EMD FP-7s nos. 116A and 116C. These were the only FP-7s purchased by the CGW. The FP-7 is characterized by being 4' longer than other F units. This extra space was used for water storage for the steam generator.

Paint Schemes-
As delivered, the FP-7s were painted in the Maroon and Red scheme. However, instead of the original Corn Belt Route emblem, they used the Lucky Strike.

In the 1950's these units would recieve the simplified Maroon scheme. Note that the black parting line on the roof was moved forward and no longer curved.

And after 1963 they would get the final CGW paint scheme.

Modeling Data-
| Unit | Phase | Headlight | Horn | DBs | Wint. Hatch |
| 116A | Ph1 | Dual w/ Mars upper | ? | 36" fan | Yes |
| 116C | Ph1 | Dual w/ Mars upper | ? | 36" fan | Yes |
Modeling Notes-
When modeling an FP-7 (or any other F unit with a steam generator), you will probably need to add the water fill hatch which is situated on the lower middle panel on the side of the unit. This is often not included from the manufacturer, at least not in N scale.
And as always, this is just a guide, please reference prototype photographs for actual colors and placements as all units may not be the same.
Happy Modeling!
