Re: CP to Buy KCS

Pitiful. Once again, artistic acumen in the railroad world is about as dead as Loewy and Knickerbocker. Looks like the bottom line here was "we got a lot of red paint we need to use". A CP engine that suffered a radiator fan fire.

Re: CN Train Updates - June 2023

At around 5 pm I was stopped by a WB (headed towards Detroit, this used to be WB on this line) on the Mount Clemens Sub. at 8 Mile Road. When it cleared and I crossed the tracks I saw at the entrance to the long spur there north of 8 Mile that I once heard called the Turkey Trail what seems to be a...

Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread

Chessie System heritage is out, I’m starting to like this fade concept that they’re doing. I would have preferred that "Chessie System" on the long hood been a bit bigger. Even with the restrictive layout of the doors and equipment, seems they could have done better. Nice to have it, but nothing ea...

Re: Whites stripes on NS SD40-2 plows

Visibility, visibility, visibility. Easier to see when approaching in a yard, especially at night or in the gloaming.

Re: CN Train Updates - June 2023

L515 (GTW 5853) finally left SB out of Mount Clemens after a rather hectic morning. Held in town due to police having to corral a naked man who had climbed to the top of a communications tower near South Mount. Also, had some signal trouble which required getting in touch with CN big shots in Homewo...

Re: CPKC Livery Options

Back to the drawing board. Aesthetics are as dead as Leland Knickerbocker and Raymond Loewy. A million possibilities out there, and this is what they come up with.
