Western Railroad Discussion > Worst. Warbonnet. Ever.Date: 04/19/14 19:08 Worst. Warbonnet. Ever. Author: Mastadon So today I decided to work the former Santa Fe Chillicothe Subdivision to try my luck with the surviving searchlights. At Ancona I was "blessed" with a Santa Fe Warbonnet leader. The Pride of the Fleet was caught westbound. This poor thing has been running around like this for years. Can someone please put it out of its misery?

1. Here is another. 2. For those wondering why people think the current appearance of warbonnets is horrible, keep in mind they used to look like this. Date: 04/19/14 20:46 Re: Worst. Warbonnet. Ever. Author: Railfan2 They are being called pink bonnets now

Jim Date: 04/20/14 04:23 Re: Worst. Warbonnet. Ever. Author: calsubd Railfan2, Thanks for that refreshing pic, most of the young fans over here in Florida go nuts when they see a tired WB, you should post it on the Eastern board, here's 1 I got the other day.
