A rainy day here, so no ball games for the kids and a free day off ...and another tunnel motor gets weathered. I went a little lighter on this one than the first one I weathered. Figured I'd resurrect this long forgotten thread as it seems like the right place to post it!
Carl - that's the prettiest SP locomotive ever to grace the rails IMHO. A grungy tunnel motor is second
Carl, Very very nice job with those SP daylight steamer photos! As a Graphic Designer and Art Director/Photo Art Director I must tell you, Excellent use of selective focus! The loco really pops! Beautiful! :thumbs_up: :thumbs_up:
Dave, John, Kosmo - Thanks for the comments. Very much appreciated. Dave - I agree, any SP loco is good to see. I have some grungy diesels I'll have to post someday. Gotta keep this SP thread going, so maybe I should do so soon. :lightbulb:

Sister SP 9813 is operating below on "Somewhere West", a layout built by my friends Daniel Roth and Lucien Wiss. It will be exhibited in Zürich, next October 14 and 15th 2006. I will be able to take new pictures there. see more on my album http://www.railimages.com/gallery/jeanedouardheller
