Another excellent report CRD. Thank you for posting. Was it a cold chase?

I like the Royal Blue (or whatever it's officially) on the engines.
It almost makes me like the snowy backdrop.
Almost :)

Very nice report and pictures! Thanks for sharing. I miss being able to see and photograph the GLC. I'm pretty sure 386 is an SD35, I haven't had a chance to see those in person yet.
