Worst paint scheme i have ever seen on a P42 hands down.
Not your fault though @Lenny53
The old Via paint scheme looked great though, could have just modernized that one instead...

Apparently the DS warranted track time on both mains for some Hi-Railer Adam69. We saw this on the railcam and burst out laughing given that the local PD has a frequent habit of this next to our studio:

Caught YorkRail (G&W) switching the lone customer in Hanover, PA on Wednesday.  Sunoco Products, they receive plastic pellets in covered hoppers.  GP10 and the lone surviving CF7 from the roster, though its time is probably short.

You can catch this one spotted at track end on the siding behind the Ballast Point Brewery, Miramar location in San Diego.  Obviously, it's quickly become a magnate for those practicing their graf craft.

Windmill blades going through Beare behind two Oakway veterans, who powered the train all the way to Texas:

I'm in Prague, traveling by train (is there any better way?) so I took these shots of local color. The electrics are Skoda, one taken under a beautifully restored trainshed, the rebuilt doodlebug dates back to the sixties, and there are several serving on an everyday commuter branch, and the PCC inspired retro streetcars, also dating back to the early sixties have also been completely rebuilt, with their floors dropped between the trucks to allow wheelchair access. Pretty cool, in front of the McDonalds I think. Blending of cultures....
