    Besides the Irish stuff there is always good old "Southern" green.

    Here you go Russell, some cargo we were hauling on a Cowlitz, Chehalis and Cascade special a few years ago.

    Dia Duit!

    While I don't have access to the plane ride across the pond to take more pictures of her myself, British Railways #70000 Britannia just went through a complete restoration, and wore green for much of her life. There is a great photo collection of her rebuild here:

    She's all done up in black now, but I think the Irish would let that slide in the spirit of the holiday. :)

    Beannacht Lá Fhéile Pádraig! (Happy St Patrick's Day!)
    Sláinte! (Cheers!) :tb-biggrin:

    I am going to be wearing green before St Patricks day as I am hoping to have it off! I used to have a necklace of small shamrocks that lit up and the Yardmaster saw them on the camera lighting up the cab of the power I was on. Said he couldnt figure out why there was a green glow coming from the window ;)
    Slainte back at ya Brian!Erin go bragh!
