Wow, that is an incredible photo! This is certainly one of the most incredible displays of both locomotive models and paintschemes that I've seen. That is variety at its best!

Very nice photo. That would need to be a large memory card for all the photos that would be taken in a scene like this.

While I realize many rail fans like the "Big Sky Blue" and "Cascade Green," from my experience, these represent two of the more utilitarian, if not boring, paint schemes. Both designed for minimum paint booth down time (analyze the masking pattern required). In fact GN was forced to simply the beautiful "Empire Builder" design, to get units back on the road asap. Ultimately we end up with many single color units with white lettering. Oh for the days of the "Black Widow!"

Look at of those fallen flags. This is a beautiful sight

Great shot. By the time I got to Oroville, the BN power was all green, but the Alcos were still there.

They dont run them like they use too! Great consist!

I love this shot, so many great paint schemes and locomotive variations.

The blue may be a simple scheme but it is absolutely stunning as is the CB&Q red in the background.
