Hey Ken, I meant to comment on the driveshaft in that 1948 Mikado. Looks like a nicely manufactured assembly. Be interesting to see some close-ups of the motor and drive train. Thanks, Barry

Lovin' those "worms in love." Penn Central was the requiem to the death of the railroad economy that provided tens of thousands of good paying jobs and safe transportation. It is appropriate the signature color was funeral black. First the interstate highway system crippled the rail economy, and then NAFTA sucked the American landscape of its industry served by rail. This photo is quite a political statement when I think upon it. Off the politics, PC has always been my favorite railroad, guess I loved the under dog.JMcNeal
