Thanx CM3 'n Lars for dropping by . . .
As mentioned at the bar - never wudda guessed Fields Point - never!
My offering for this fine day . . . .
Good Morning - Fields Point, RI
PRSL was jointly owned as you suggested.
Nice coevr of the SOU steam engine and train - enjoyed the artisitc license as the mountains sort of look like Colorado and the trestle lloks like it came off the P&WV. Anyway, it's the spirit that counts.
Work safe
Another fine cover from the Railroad Magazine! <sweet>
Here's my daily . . . .
CM3: I posited your question over at the bar, where at least you have a chance at getting a response!
Lars: An interesting road - jointly owned venture of the Pennsy & Reading, I believe!
Back to the Railroad Magazine . . . .
And the Turbo Train continues on here at the lonely thread . . .
Mine would be just a poor guess regarding where the refueling 'n repair facilities were for the Turb Train on the NEC. Tell us!! <grin>
One for the day . . .
Good Morning: Interesting selection of pictures. Turbo had a lot of color schemes throughout its career. Quiz for the day - where was the refuel and repair shop for Turbos when they ran on the NEC?
Nice one Lars . . .
Another TurboTrain for the day!
Some nifty-neato-keeno Turbo Train "stuff" ovAH at the bar!
Shifting gears . . . .
Great one, Lars!
Here's another . . .
The Turbo visited Los Angeles' Union Passenger Terminal (LAUPT) during its tour of the United States in 1971. <Fair Use - Wikipedia.com>
Good insights from Shane! Nice that you posted it over at the bar for the guyz to view!
Another Turbo . . . .
TurboTrain New Haven RR (from: www.trainweb.com)
Good Morning: Fine artwork and a vintage turbo shot. I could never get used to the yellow nose, however. Turbo was an interesting ride as I did it more than a few times when it ran between Boston and NY. Best seat was in the bubble on the head end. I tried to sit on the "fireman's" side as you could see all of the instruments, etc. the engineer used. It was also good for watching signals, etc. Incidentally, the nose was actually clamshell doors that could be opened. Fiberglass, IIRC.
Love the Brit posters!!
Here's a change of pace for the day . . .
TurboTrain VIA Rail/CN (from: http://www.trainweb.com/)
Another UK poster to keep things "alive" on this lonely Thread . . .
Great to see both of you here 'n at the bar!
Something from the UK . . .
Good Morning - More GN material at the bar today - check it out.
Those magazine covAHs are winnAHs! Too bad the "numbers" looking in can't make comments! <geesh> Much more fun ovAH at the bar!
