    For some reason, I've always liked this picture so I'll use it to start off this weeks Proto Fun! This was in the Scranton PA area in I think early 2006.

    Also, my apologizes to Hemi for doubling up the Proto Fun thread last week. Guess I was just off in another world or something :oops::confused:

    Looks almost but not quite like a former Santa Fe alligator like these two were.

    No worries! I though about merging the threads into one. Maybe if I get a round tuit....

    I have been busy with retirement stuff, hosting family for a week and all sorts of other busyness and neglected to download my camera for like 3 weeks. I had 2200 photos to chew thru, and about 180 keepers. Here's one.

    CP light power rumbles past milepost 474, just east of Burlington, ND:

    Amtrak 8 at Lonetree, ND behind a fresh Charger:

    After Amtrak passed, no trains were in sight, so a blank silhouette at Lonetree, ND will have to do.

    That's quite a find @BNSF FAN ! (y) It's former LV 405, in Indiana Hi-Rail paint, owned by the Delaware-Lackawanna RR.

    From 05/09/2000 on the former ACL main at Sharpsburg, NC. Conrail was operationally dissolved on 06/01/1999.

    Cool! A C-420!:cool:

    Hemi's photos are spectacular! I like the old truck in the first one. It would be great to revive and spruce up that old beast.:)
