    I'll be on the road, so I'm starting the thread a bit early. Happy Friday!
    Here's a couple trains on 24 June, the Ross Local gets underway at dawn:

    And Amtrak train 7 arrives on time--wrong leader:

    Cool photos so far, guys!

    First idea that popped into my brain: Amtrak 304's paint job looks like a design made for a sports jersey.:LOL:

    VIA's P42s are a bit ragged and long in the tooth... That paint scheme doesn't help!:eek:

    About time they changed for the new Chargers.

    From April 1984 at Tuscaloosa, AL, the 8271 remains in IC paint. Rebuilt by the IC at Paducah, KY, she's former FEC GP-9 671.

    Reminds me of the ones that MKT bought. Probably went to scrap wearing the same paint.

    There's paint under all that rust?o_O

    More than likely, it's the remaining paint that keeping it together. Don't sneeze too hard at it.:eek:
