Well it's a rainy, 40-degree day here in Illinois, also had some sleet mixed in with the snow a few times. <br /> <br />I think the modern-day CB&Q has finally went back to the era I used to want to model--the 1950s. After I saw a few pictures of classic-era railroads in MR, and ran my CB&Q steamer with sound, I decided that wether I've ever seen trains from that era or not I wanted to model the postwar era again. So now I can go back to 40' and 50' boxcars painted mineral red, woodside waycars, F-units, Baldwin switchers, Geeps, SD's, and Alcos.[:D] Besides, what I realized I wanted a modern CB&Q to be like was what the road was like in the midcentury decades, anyways. <br /> <br />Well I got off today because of Veterans' Day, hopefully everyone gave thanks to the veterans today. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Christopher
