Watched "Red Dawn" (1984) last night...nothing like some good ol' fightin' with those pesky Soviets to get the adrenaline flowing.
You know with the world's situation today, I really kinda miss the USSR in a way....at least then we sat and starred at each other waiting for the other guy to blink....now we're looking around the room for the crazed terrorist with a dirty nuke that we can't always easily see.
Anyway, I had forgotten the Soviets paint out the Santa Fe in this movie. Reason enough to press that button for me! You don't get really good looks at 'em, but there's a Santa Fe Caboose, Box Cars, and a Geep that all got the Commies' Red Star over the ATSF logos.
Given the look of the new BNSF wedgie going over classic ATSF warbonnets, I don't know which is worse really...the wedge? or the hammer and sickle?? [:o)]
