Although I was a fan from April 1 1976 to the last day of operations, I would have to say the mid 80`s are my favorite. She was a solid citizen earning profits with spartan cab EMD`s mowing down the miles. That was the era I chose to model and the one that made the biggest impact on me.. Your turn...
My sig says it all: the last days. SD80MACs, C40-8s, SD60Is, SD70s, SD40-2s, GP38-2s, B23-7s, still some SD38s and SW1500s. "Quality" paint. What a time... if only I'd ever gone East in the 90s. I've only recently discovered how interesting 1977-1980 was for CR, but I just can't get used to railroading that much before my time.
