    I found me a new barn for the Armadillo Ranch. I got Jeb and Buck to haul it there for me.

    Those spark arrestors have me thinking that Watco was in the picture, at one time or another.

    In my mind, all locomotives should look this clean and shiny. NS 4537, released from Wabtec's Ft. Worth facility after rebuilding from a Dash9 just last December, singlehandedly leads NS empty autoracks bound from N. Jersey to Michigan. This was taken this morning at Wyomissing JCT.

    I wish I had the talent to do that in Photoshop. Really, it's just fresh paint.

    The 3241 was probably the last clean NS unit I saw, 08/17/2019 in Columbia, SC. I think the rebuilt SD-40-2s are Altoona graduates.
