I’m always happy to have a old “red nose” as my leader, no matter how broken and abused it is. It might not be new and shiny but it’s still something to be proud of.

I love those old Warbonnets, too, no mater how faded and tattered their old paint is. Classy is still classy, I say!

Long live the Santa Fe!

Ooooh.... Very nice photo of classy and elegant locomotives! the Santa Fe really knew what it was doing when it brought back this elegant paint scheme. True class! Thanks so much for that beautiful photo!

Y'all can credit Mike Haverty for the Warbonnet's resurrection, as well as that of the Southern Belle paint scheme on Kansas City Southern.
