I snagged this one at work, where I play with 1:1 trains!

My N scale Allegheny & Cumberland was built for railranning & that's why I enjoy modeling the early '90's .... you never know what paint scheme will be passing by next. On this day, we're lucky enough to find a C&O GP38 still in good original paint on point leaving Sand Patch Yard. It's where the past catches up with the future ( YN2's with their coal loads ) .....

Thank you Don and Crandell!

Samuel, I'm not seeing your photos.  Maybe you didn't add the .jpg at the end?

Jarrell,

Thanks for kicking off the Weekend! It's always a pleasure to look at your photos; crisp, clear and always great subjects!

I'll say!  I'm seriously thinking of staying out this week. Shock [:O]

Wow, Jarrell.

A very short, and probably untrue story (Tom W. can set me straight probably) that I read was that there was a competition in Europe a couple of centuries or so ago among some of the top musicians and composers.  Two notables were Domenico Scarlatti and Georg Haendel.  The two first came face-to-face in a contest of violin playing where the eventual decision was in favour of Scarlatti.  A day or two later, Scarlatti slipped into the doorway of a church where Haendel was rehearsing at the organ for the next competition.  After only a few minutes, Scarlatti hied himself to the judges and withdrew from that competition.

We have some towering masters in photography here, and your name is foremost in my books, Jarrell.  Cool [8D]
