In February 1934, Pullman built the first UP streamliner, M10000, "City of Salina", with power by Electro-Motive, #508. It was a three car train which was considered a motor train since it was a single articulated unit, rather than a locomotive hauled train. It ran demonstrations in competition with the Budd built Burlington Zephyr. It was later rebuilt in 1936.

Later that year Pullman built a longer train, M10001.

In 1936, Pullman and Electro-Motive teamed up to build M10005A. It was renumbered CD-05A in 1939. I found it interesting that my photo was taken 2 days after Otto Perry's.

Also in 1936, Pullman and Electro-Motive built M10006A. It became CD-06A in 1939.

At the same time, these builders produced M10007A, which became CD-07A in 1939.

In October 1937, Electro-Motive built LA-1 under construction number 741. EMD called it an E2A. In August 1946 it was renumbered 921A. In 1948 it was renumbered 984J, and on December 1, 1948, it became Chicago & North Western 5003A.

On August 21, 1940, Electro-Motive built 8-M-1.
