Yes, CG engines regularly powered the Seminole into Chicago. They may also have been on the CIty of Miami. IC engines also came into Columbus, Georgia, early in the afternoon, and were turned there. I am not sure, but I think that CM engines ran through Chicago-Jacksonville. Generally, the CG engines used on these trains were painted the IC colors. You also found ACL, FEC, and CG cars, as well as the IC cars on these two trains. The equipment assigned to these trains was painted in the IC colors, no matter which road owned them.

My wife just bought a jigsaw puzzle with a night-time rail scene (not a photo). It includes two passenger trains with E units, in Chicago. One is IC and the other is Central of Georgia!
Is there any scenario by which CofG passenger units would be in Chicago? Looks like maybe the 50's. Painters often work from a photo.
Still in training.
