Bad day good train
Author: photobob

On the occasion of the 9800's first eastbound train on the I-5 Corridor I went up to Cougar to capture the moment. The light was lousy in the late afternoon but the shiny paint job more then made up for it. I forgot what the date was.

Wow!

Of course, I always take cloudy day shots....I've found that one of the rules of railfanning is that many rare and excellent trains are found when the light is less than perfect.

It just doesn't get better than that for an SP photo. You make me sick Bob! Between this photo and the photo of 8300 above at Taylor, proves SP paint was sharp. How much does it cost to buy a screen saver of this photo?

Dave...Bob would only charge YOU an arm and leg. Still, a nice photo indeed.
