SP 9800's first trip past Mt Shasta
Author: photobob

SP newest power makes its first trip north past Mt Shasta at Cougar. It was really big event for me as I was getting tired of those same old Tunnel Motors and all those rebuilt SD40's. I lugged my 4x5 field camera up to this location and waited while the weather was taking a crap. It seems like only yesterday, my how time flies as you get older.

The last, good looking EMD unit offered. As for EMD, not so handsome anymore.

Beautiful bright white on that SD70M. Just how I like to remember them.

I like it Bob, keep up the good work.

Any clues why Bob doesn't do Calender's??

Great B&W Bob, thanks for sharing. As for me, I never got tired of "those same old Tunnel Motors and SD40's."

Thanks for the B&W fix. I remember the days when each new model looked discernably different than the previous models.

Probably doesn't want a reminder of how old he is now! (I should talk!)
