I have seen a number of one of's like the GM10 and GM6. I also count the B&O GP40 painted in gold as the GM50 in honor of the 50th year of EMC/EMD. I also saw the Amtrak LRC (being hauled by a F40 because it broke down). But what I hold as my rarest sighting was the remains of a standard gauge 0-4-0T in Damascus Virginia that the owners had removed some of the firebox and installed an old chevy engine and manual transmission connected to the rear axle. Yes a steam engine with a stick shift and a clutch!!! When I saw it 25 years ago it had not run in at least 10 years. I doubt it is still there, but I wonder.
