This locomotive is painted in honor of Leo J. Cusik. I found the following quote in Metro Magazine about him: "After entering the transportation industry at the age of 15, Leo Cusick went on to serve as an executive level official for several major transit agencies across the country, including systems in New York, Chicago, Boston and Kansas City, Mo. At the time of his retirement, Cusick was chief operating officer of the Northeastern Illinois RTA. His impact on Chicago's Metra was such that the agency named one of its passenger rail units the "Leo J. Cusick" in his honor. Cusick was also inducted into APTA's Hall of Fame."
