More good stuff there @nikonbill! 
From September 2022 at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania at Strasburg, the smokebox of Pennsylvania RR 460, a Class E6s 4-4-2 Atlantic, built in Altoona, PA 1914. She was a speedster, famous for racing an aircraft to New York City carrying newsreel film of Charles Lindbergh's return to the U.S. after his transatlantic flight in 1927. The plane arrived first, but the film aboard the train was processed en-route and arrived in theatres hours before the film in the airplane was processed. [D5100]

Snagged Norfolk Southern's Conrail Heritage locomotive this morning. It was drizzly and overcast, but I'm glad to have finally seen it. The wave from the Conductor was a welcome thing. With crews protected by bullet-proof glass and comforted by A/C, the human side of railroading is sometimes hard to find these days. [D5100]

Ed Dickens had to stop 4014 and dress-down a rail trespasser. I wonder how many times he restrained himself from doing that on this trip.
At Sterling, IL there was some idiot trespassing on the track and he drew a whole lot of heckling from the crowd until he finally stepped back.
