I still say it looks like the thing has been punched in the nose!LaughLaughLaughDevilClownCowboy

Sorry Bear, couldn't resist firing back. I just can't stop thinking that the EMD Es and Fs were so much more attractive with their smooth flowing lines, E6s especially. The FAs at least were still trying to add form into function (i.e. the designers were trying to make them look good). I'm not enamoured of the modern diesels with their strictly functional designs. (There I go again! That's going to start a firestorm for sure!!)

I don't have any new photos to offer to WPF but here is one of my favourites. Grandt Line 25 tonner in front of an Intermountain FP7, both with sound:

If I can make it to Tuesday's club meet, I'm going to take the 25 tonner and some freight cars to see what it can do.

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
