    I love Alco Centuries. That's a great find! Excellent review for the week, as always!

    I see faint "BNSF" on the cab of SF #1460. (Baldwin?) Did she really last late enough to have BNSF stencil?

    More entertaining photography from our members. Lots of diesel combos there and that winter photo is stunning, Hemi.

    Thats the famous Beep - a one-of-a-kind VO-1000 repowered by ATSF with an EMD 567 engine. It came to BNSF and worked the Topeka yard. I've seen pictures showing it at work as late as 2008. It is at display since 2009.
