PD3000 would be wonderful. Super motivation to have a cement plant on the layout, including a bit of narrow gauge going to a limestone mine.

Reset your watch Bob.  The announcement was supposed to be made on 3/15, today is 3/14 (a.k.a pi day, 3.14, for the geeks among us).

But I guess we know that it's a PD3000 already. ;)

You know with our luck it WOULD be a western coalporter. :scared:

I'm still not convenced its a PD3K. I don't see any shading on the walkway that you would expect to between the wide area over the body and thin area over the overhang/crossover.

Truck spacing is too far for a carbon black type car.  Some type of airflow car I'm guessing.  Either that or a helium car. :D
I even searched for the photographer and came up empty.  Craig did a pretty good job of hiding this one.  Do you think he'll be up at 4 AM PDT in order to unveil at 7 AM for those eastern guys?
