You Have Mail - Crandic Style
Author: Mastadon

Cedar Rapids and Iowa City GP9 105 was leading the daily freight bound for Iowa City in 1996. The 105 was built for the Chicago and North Western in 1959 as CNW 1758 and somewhere along the way it lost its high hood.

The train was passing the Young's mailbox as the old EMD headed for interchange to the Iowa Interstate.

Funny!
A friend of mine had a pig farm in Hamburg, PA. Yes! We enjoyed the early Reading Blue Mountain and Northern steam and diesel tourist trains heard not far away.
Point is he had the same pig on his mailbox and pig raising company name was "Pigs Are Us". I did the graphics for the T Shirts and glass mugs!
They were fun days with great eats!
