    If you are into the big name trains of the 1950s you have to check out this flickr site. Apperently this lady bought these slides at auction. WOW, there are some great shots in the collection of the California Zephyr, City of San Francisco, Royal Gorge, the famous sky dome of the Hiawathas, Santa Fe Chiefs, Empire Builder, AeroTrain. There are both intertior and exterior shots. The buyer does not know a whole lot about trains so you have to search a little bit, but in my mind it is worth the it plus you can download them for free. Great find!
