Jones1945Show me a train which had service life shorter than 5 years. : )
NdeM's electrified service to Mexico City, using these:

It's kind of hard to see, but the lead loco has CP's Lettering scheme, and the second unit has CP's "golden beaver" scheme.

Does it matter if the 'different railroads' are current?

Let me ask a slightly different one:
Show me a train with locos from the same railroad in many different paint schemes.
gmpullmanAre we supposed to make a request for the next photo?
I think the way it's supposed to work is that the person who 'answers' the previous show-me challenge then proposes the next one -- I see I didn't do that. I think that's a bit more fun than what we've been doing, interesting as that promises to be. Ed, why don't you ask an upcoming 'show me ...' to get the ball rolling again.
I propose we start an 'answer' by quoting the previous 'show me a ... ' line and then providing the picture, followed by the next question as its own easy-to-quote line starting with 'show me...'
Ok- this is getting confusing, so lets get back on track with Amtrak.

The only time I saw green flags was in February of 1964 or 1965--the IC ran a second section of the Louisane, carrying people to New Orleans for Mardi Gras.

zugmannHow about a temporary block operator?
How about green flags? When was the last time you saw that?

St. Petersburg, Fl. Jan, 1975.
Are we supposed to make a request for the next photo?
Cheers, Ed
Miningman It appears the French built trailing unit is not powered. Is this correct.
All too often this was correct. (Rimshot)
Would a lashup like this function well?
Function about as well with X996 pans down as it would with them up. (Rimshot)
Seriously, I think pans are not up for MU, but some other reason. This is a power move to an IEEE conference display when the CC21000 was still technically 'in the running' for the Corridor repower ... it's interesting to consider if it would have performed better on fully-rebuilt high-speed track implemented by non-set-aside contractors.

MiningmanOvermod-- Saw your pics briefly and then 'poof' gone.
I'll edit the post to fix the links. This is a hotlinking snafu.
How about a temporary block operator?
Not the greatest quality photo, from probably 2005ish (judging from the F150). Doens't seem like that long ago when I took it.
The opinions expressed here represent my own and not those of my employer, any other railroad, company, or person.
Overmod-- Saw your pics briefly and then 'poof' gone. The Rocky Mountaineer is still there.
Nope, never saw that 4 unit lashup picture before. That's quite a thing. It appears the French built trailing unit is not powered. Is this correct. Would a lashup like this function well? Was it on a system tour, showcasing the X996?
oltmanndHow about an intercity train that is not Amtrak?
Modern or ancient?
Reading, from Philadelphia to Valley Forge?
Or the cities served by these green and gold E units for a while...
Or we SOB types ('south of the border' in the lower 48) could just wail and gnash our teeth...

Over at the model railroader forums, there is a thread called "Show Me Something". I wonder if we could start a thread like that for Trains. below are the rules:
This is a place where forum members can post their photos featuring a view of a "requested" scene or object.
If you show the scene requested you can then make a request of your own or choose to stay with the current request. If you do not make a request, than the last one is still in effect.
Your photos should be of a real train only, not a model scene. After 24 hours, if the requested scene has not been posted, anyone is welcome to make a submission of their own choice of subject and then make the next request. It's all about having fun! Let's see those photos!
Amtrak's Adirondack rounding the curve into Plattsburgh.
