I Always liked the box cabs pulling clerestory coaches. A little splash of 1961 paint on some vintage technology.

Love the steam heat. Well done. Did you ride these services to get the thrash as well, or just take fots?

Too freaky. The STCUM train looked awfully familiar, along with the weather, so I went back in my Logan files, and there it is, shot the next day. I came down from Ottawa with a couple of railfan buddies to see what we could shoot. I see I have scans, so I checked to see if I posted them up on an MLW Monday or not. There are two of them, at https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?15,4416311,4416311#msg-4416311 and https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?15,4451162,4451162#msg-4451162.
