    Another great selection this week, Bill! That CN steamer is a beautiful sight to behold. They're taking good care of her - nice and shiny as the day it left the works. :love:

    Great to see that apparently someone is caring well for that precious steam locomotive!

    Good work, everyone. Man, that U-1 looks beautiful. Russell is experiencing one of the many things on my own bucket list, riding the Rocky Mountaineer between Vancouver and Banff.

    Thanks Bill. I like Keith's shot of the BNSF consist. That old UP is so typical of all the lease power putting in miles for all the major railroads. I have been seeing a lot of lease stuff on the Canadian roads this past week.

    I had to ride the bus to get from Jasper, where the steam locomotive is on display, to Banff as there are no direct rails between the two. On the way back to Vancouver on the train now. Awesome trip.
