Post your Train shots!

Did a quick look on the Internet and it's owned by the Columbia Basin Railroad I think. I don't know anything else about it, but the paint scheme is attractive.

I really like this! It's something I don't see everyday...well, actually I don't ever recall seeing snow covered tracks!
Nice!

Rick, so, so great photos
Black River & Western Railroad switching in Flemington, NJ about 1975. This locomotive is an Alco RS-1 which was probably built in the late 40's or early 50's. Its original owner was the Washington (DC) Terminal Railroad. The RS-1 was a landmark locomotive, one of the first to combine switching capabilities and long haul road use in a single design. Alco used 4-Cycle turbocharged engines and they sounded so beautiful. I think this locomotive is now stored out of service somewhere in PA.
Nice shots! Brrrrr. Looks like an oil or ethanol train headed by the BNSF power.
What a fantastic vantage point. Love this!
Wow, that is gorgeous! Your processing is fantastic. Oh, how I'd love to visit. They've set up the place perfectly. I have a nice little collection of old luggage and one or 2 of those pieces look familiar.
Thanks for sharing!
