When you have a sparkling Rumo engine pulling sparkling clean Rumo grain cars...what a beautiful sight, Lucas MR. I've seen video of such a train on YouTube. The closest thing in terms of aestheics I've seen here in "the States" is on the American railway Kansas City Southern (also known as "KCS") with red-orange-black engines pulling grain cars in the same colors. Unfortunately, I was told by a KCS rail employee that those particular grain cars had a nasty habit of putting their wheels on the ground so that may be, sadly, why I'm not now seeing grain trains composed exclusively of hopper cars now as I once did.
