Page 8 of the July 1953 issue of Trains Magazine (Published by Kalmbach Publishing) has a photo of the two rebuilds for passenger service. The caption states that their new HP rating was 4500, that they recieved steam generators, engine trucks from scrapped F7 Hudsons, and high speed gearing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.79.6.240 (talk) 06:10, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Milwaukee Road class EP-1, EF-1, EF-2, EF-3, and EF-5Milwaukee Road class EF-1 – The current title is ungainly and, I think, unnecessary. As built, Class EF-1 was the 30 two-unit boxcabs numbered 10200A/B–10229A/B. They were intended for freight and entered service 1915–1916. Class EP-1 comprised another 24 two-unit boxcabs numbered 10100A/B–10111A/B which were geared for passenger service. They enter service at the same time as the EF-1s, but are converted to freight service and redesignated as EF-1s in 1919, after just four years. The designations EF-2, EF-3, and EF-5 represented mid-life combinations of EF-1s, as discussed in the article text. Mackensen (talk) 03:08, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
