Pure Pennsylvania Power!
Author: Orion4572

Today at the Randall museum in SF, I was running a 2-10-0 Decapod with a 2-8-0 H10.
Maybe not the most prototypical pair but, in my opinion beautiful! 
I don't double-head steam engines very often but I thought this looked incredible! 
For those who are curious the 2-10-0 Decapod is made by BLI and the 2-8-0 is made by MTH. 
Here are some pictures and a video I took of it.

And a proper N5 cabin car to bring up the rear.  Nicely done.  What does the yellow diagonal door stripe indicate on the SP boxcar?

Thank you!
I believe the yellow stripe signified some sort of lumber service.
Here are some more pictures.

The SP boxcar is a little to rrecent for that train. From the 1960s common in Oregon - lumber service cars.
