Garry:

Actually, my request was a sneaky one--in hopes that you WOULD post a picture of that gorgeous E-5, LOL!

Okay, back to the active freight yard.

Tom ... I like the eary DRGW diesel paint scheme, and certainly admire your layout.

Here's an early E-unit. Burlington E5.

Please show an active freight yard.

I like see other people's stuff, and try to avoid posting twice on same page in this thread, but the E5's are the best of the early E's in my opinion.
