That's it for today! Hope everyone has a great evening and tomorrow! Thanks so much for looking! Larry  Date: 05/26/16 20:38 Re: Another Day On The Prairie Author: SCKP187 Good photos. Looks like good sunshine most of the day for you. All the DPUs faceing in today.
Brian Stevens Date: 05/27/16 06:04 Re: Another Day On The Prairie Author: oklachaser Another nice series of photos Larry.
Ronda Thomas Date: 05/27/16 07:57 Re: Another Day On The Prairie Author: CP_M260 Nice photos, Larry! The 7715 was painted at Mid America Car in Kansas City, and released earlier this month - hence the different number font. It looks like the taggers already 'marked' the fuel tank on it...
-Dalton Date: 05/27/16 09:26 Re: Another Day On The Prairie Author: Ritzville Thanks Dalton for the info on the 7715. You're right, someone has already tagged the fuel tank, didn't take long for that to happen.
