Looks like the Grand Canyon sometime in the 60's. This is from a duplicate slide.

Late in its life the Grand Canyon could look pretty scruffy behind the power, but Santa Fe's Fs
sure brought back some of its old "class!"

The Santa Fe could certainly string together some absolutely beautiful locomotive consists. That's class all the way.

First car looks more like an Express Boxcar -- are those doors and door tracks at the center? Hard to see for sure...

Looks to me like one of the container cars made/cut down from diners (for mail). SFC had them often.

Looks like a Fe-24 Express Box in the Gray paint scheme.

Why is it that no matter what engine the silver/red war bonnet scheme was on looked just so dang sweet. Or was it just me?
