Seeing it in person I like it even more. I do like their old gray colors too but this is sharp looking. Clearly Starling likes red since he's responsible for the war bonnet colors for ATSF.

All great quality shots. Keep up the outstanding work!

Thank you very much. This time of the year usually isn't my favorite time to do photography....a lot of brown and grey. Can't wait for spring and summer. Just need train traffic to increase. ;)

I'll try to bring more photos more often. Kids and work have kept me busy. A lot harder now to get photos since rail traffic is not what it used to be. My kids are young enough still that waiting an hour or more between trains isn't an option.

I plan on going into the mountains in a few weeks to get some more photos.
