| It's Santa Fe, doubt it would see much of winter anyway. Would be great going through the desert on a hot day.

Uh, actually, that is the first initial invention of the cupola caboose.
Chicago & North Western...
It's real, well, it was real.
I am guessing also that it may be a combination dynamometer/geometry car.
When the first automobile came out, you wore goggles. Any motorcyclists out there? Before the windshield, there were goggles.

I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out.
"I love your catenary!"
Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

That's some NICE detail. Brass, every time.... just not from my budget!

You think OSHA even cares? Do you know what the RR's use as "shoving platforms" today, if, indeed the crew even has one?

They must be joking about quarantine procedures.
We need to get to the train stores for our fixes.

Someone probably joking about being excited about vintage engines.
What people do to be noticed on social media.
