    As always, a great selection. This time, the many and varied compositions really stand out.

    It seems that in the 1950s, UP liked rivets on their passenger car roofs. And American Car and Foundry gave them plenty.

    Will, thanks for taking the time on Super Bowl Sunday, which seems to have become a national holiday, to continue to provide this weekly assortment of our members' photographic talents.

    A lot of great photos.

    I found Kurt Moose's eclectic consist to be rather scary to me. When I spotted the " Remote Control " stickers on the front of each unit I can't help but wonder "controlled by who, from where". IMHO, just too much of a chance for some hacker (goof ball) to take over for who knows what.

    As always, have fun,
    Carl
