Those pics are awesome!  Thanks for sharing.

Really makes me wish I'd have picked up a pair of IMRC F3s or F7s in PC.  They're very hard to find at a decent price now.

Dave,

You could always try to find some of Kato's new PC E units, because that's what's on the point of that Flexi-Van train.  :)

What's the location on those shots?  I know the NC from Baltimore to Enola (pre Agnes) was a Truc Train route, not sure about flexi-vans...
