A couple of photos I took back in 1994 of Santa Fe trains through my hometown of Kirbyville, TX with out of the ordinary power.

I absolutely love that second photo. When I was a kid, Santa Fe was my favorite railroad. I had never seen it in person, but I just loved all things Santa Fe. I guess it has to do with every cheap HO train set purchased for me had a Santa Fe locomotive in it.

Thanks Tommy. I guess it all depends on what region a person is from and what they normally see. I was so sick of seeing all Santa Fe through my hometown I didn't put a lot of effort into going down and shooingt them as often as I should. I sure do miss them now.
