Great photo as aways Marty, but this scene looked very familiar.... see image 251855.

Classic! Beautiful rendition this time around. Wild to see the "Q" in white as most of us likely picture the silver stainless steel scheme. Thanks for sharing!

The CB&Q cab unit shots are all fantastic.

How Eola has changed! Are those "wooden rattlers" I spy in the upper right hand-corner?

I've always been a big fan of the CB&Q's white scheme! Great shot Marty.

In today's world of seemingly endless strings of homogenous coal hoppers, tank cars, autoracks and empty or loaded container tables, I had ALMOST FORGOTTEN what a "regular" freight train used to look like, and how LONG it has been since I have seen one. What a treat is is to see a visually random collection of car types and paint schemes all running together. And NO GRAFITTI !

Rich is correct - the colors are so vivid and the box cars look great without the hideous spray paint decorations so common in 2011
