Trains have always been a favorite with me. I am into mid 19th century wood burners. Count me in!

Those drivers must have pretty stable nerves, driving like that on snowed-under tracks with a crossing coming up. Looks like most of the time the drivers do not see a thing with the snow blowing up in front of them.

Thought this video from the history guy on youtube was interesting about railroad gauges.

I work for the railroad. Does that count? 15 years as a locomotive engineer and 10 as a road foreman of engines. I never get tired of large Diesel engines.

July 9 of this year I started at UP as a carman here in Kansas City. Before that I worked for Westinghouse Air Brake for 12 years.

Working for the UP should be a great job, and I wish you a long career. Speaking of Westinghouse Air Brake, here is a picture of PRR I-1 class 2-10-0 locomotive 4483 that was on display at the Westinghouse Air Brake Co. (WABCO) headquarters in Wilmerding, PA. for many years.
