Ahoy Cap'n Tom!

Absolutely incredible that we aren't attracting a soul over here. Is it something we've SAID?? Big Smile [:D]

That BESA is "cool" and just goes to show that North America doesn't really have a "lock" on the Classic Trains. They are EVERYWHERE, just gotta find 'em and this thread, along with "Our" Place is loaded with "class" Classics! Thumbs Up [tup] Thumbs Up [tup] Thumbs Up [tup]

Ok, 'nuf of that! On to my meager contribution for this day . . .

G-day Tom and all present!

The Northern Pacific, another of my favorite railroads besides the Milwaukee Road.

This, I thought was a cool picture. The Northern Pacific, The Great Northern, and The burlington route. All will, someday along with the SP&S, will become the Burlington Northern. But a cool photo none-the-less.Thumbs Up [tup]

Picture from: www.gngoat.org/passenger.htm

The North Coast limited races along with it's 14 car train. 3 FP9s lead the train.

Picture from: research.nprha.org/default.aspx
