This thread always reminds me that it's almost the weekend!

Here's one from when @DeltaBravo and I met up with @Dave V and his father in law at the EBT a few weeks ago.

I'd submit it to Railpictures.net but I think they already have 10 of that exact same photo.

How about some museum shots? I was volunteering as a tour guide at the Danbury Railway Museum on Labor Day, and during some down time I grabbed a photo of DRM's Sperry Motorcar, SRS 135, and New Haven Washboard EMU 4671.

I just discovered that BLI has announced the heavyweight business car, the Georgia 300, in HO scale.  Here’s where I chased the prototype on President Obama’s inauguration train in January 2009:
