Working on a winter route of sorts to complement some upcoming stuff that I'm working on.

LE&E NY-6 thunders by on it's way to Brighton Park yard.

I love the first pic. The way the loco looks with the striping, the varied car heights, and the "telephoto" effect just make a really nice screenshot. BTW what does TCS stand for? It is on the front number-plate on the loco.
 
A trio of GP7s heads up Columbus-bound PDQ-6. This train was an extension of the Levi and Appalachian PDQ service over LE&E rails, allowing for minimal switching at freight terminals when the trains were handed off.

In 1988, a Southern Pacific local powered by an EMD GP40-2 and a Conrail GP40 on loan to the SP pass by on a rural branch line somewhere in the Midwest.

Meanwhile, back in 1975, an Amtrak GG1 has a southbound passenger train in tow on the Northeast Corridor.

Just a L&N F2am (my mods and parts added to a JR F7) out with a couple of RS-3s (my mods, HFmurphys artwork) returning empty coal cars to Loyall yard on fireball573's L&N Cumberland Valley route <kuid:126855:243033> to be distributed to the mines.
