 Chicago & Eastern Illinois (buzzsaw) 86’ boxcars. In 1967, a dispute between the MoPac and the L&N over control of the C&EI was settled. MoPac took control of the C&EI and sold the Evansville Line and a half interest in the line from Chicago to Danville to L&N. At this point, a buzzsaw version of the C&EI logo was developed and Jenks Blue began replacing black on C&EI diesels. C&EI received this group of boxcars from Greenville in 1969 in the new standard C&EI paint scheme. The C&EI would finally be merged with MoPac in 1976. This roadname will be available as two different singles:
