Great photo collection! I especially like your full moon image.

I thought I read somewhere that P029/030 had reduced its cars to only four; yours shows it with six, without the observation car, plus one more Suberliner. Has the reduction been only two cars, not four?

Covid had shrunk P029 & 30 to one engine & four cars, but they have now been expanded to two engines & six cars.
