Consider the outside back cover of the July 2008 Trains Magazine, an advertisement for Classic Trains Magazine featuring 1 large photo and 3 small ones.
Although I much prefer the first two of the smaller photos (I'd really like to be that kid!) I was studying the large upper photo. I was not just looking at the two Burlington trains (twins for sure), I was studying the background, looking at the cars parked on the hill and the upper portion of a turntable, etc.
Then I began to look at the crowd in the foreground and noticed one young man looking back, directly at the camera when the photo was taken. Then I noticed several others looking back, too. Some at the camera and others seemingly looking for someone in the crowd.
Then I noticed another young man looking directly at the camera and it suddenly dawned on me that I had seen him before... but where? Oh! I know! He is the TWIN of the first young man I noticed! Then I noticed two women that are possibly twins and behind them another two, and two boys that might be twins.
The first man I noticed is just left of center near the bottom; his "twin" is in the middle of the right side at the top of the foreground crowd. The two boys are on the left of the left engine. The two sets of twin women are to the right of the cab of the engine on the right.
Does anyone else see these people as twins (I admit my ability to recognize faces is not all that good)? Does anyone see any other twins?
I am wondering... since the "twin" trains are there, could it be that Burlington invited people who are twins to attend the gathering?
