[​IMG] ..anyway you get my drift!

    Five star rating there Mike. Yes you should feel old. :D I do looking at them. :D The pool power that ran on the SP at that time was amazing. Also wasn't Santa Fe leasing some B&O GP-40's at that time? I like the B&W shot, feels right some how.

    The things that were so common back then...sorta took for granted....compared to what one see's now running...I am glad I was able to document some of those moments.

    All tunnel motors look great - as long as they are not yellow :( ;)
