    MAJOR theft in San Antonio from Model RR dealer

    Yes, just last month. It's a real shame that this happened, too.

    Stanley's coming home...

    If I slow down a Calgary player by grabbing his sweater (jersey) does that make me a Flame Retardant?

    Atlas Forum gone until August?!?!?

    Boy, has anyone noticed that everytime the Atlas forum shuts down, people who haven't posted in six months start showing up again? ;)

    Unusual rolling stock

    Did it look something like this? This is an N-scale model of a covered gondola, but there are actual cars like this. (Photo courtesy of Micro-trains)

    RGS "Galloping Goose" models

    Here's a couple of shots of Rio Grande Southern's #6 at the Colorado Rail Museum last winter. One of the projects was to get #6 built back up to operational condition, but I'm not sure if that's finished yet or not. I can email you the full-size pictures if you want them

    Just back....

    Dan - The snow on the plow of the GP38 almost looks like you're staring through the pilot at the ground behind it. It took me a few seconds to realize that loco had all the parts it was supposed to.

    Where did it go???

    And for 'W', another shortline - the West Texas and Lubbock RR.

    Where did it go???

    Dan, There's a fellow on the Atlas forum that has a signature you'd probably like: UNION PACIFIC We Will Devour And now, to stay on topic, here's another 'U' in the form of the Utah Railway.

    Where did it go???

    Moving back to 'U' for a second, this is a DD40AX Centennial belonging to Uncle Pete (Union Pacific), #6911 and a sister unit in action. The DD40AX was built specially for the U.P. 6936 is the only Centennial still in active service today.

    Where did it go???

    And my nomination for 'T' is the Texas & NorthEastern.

    Where did it go???

    Dan, That's the nice thing about running a model railroad - you can do whatever you want, even change history to suit your tastes. In my little universe, that merger actually happened, although I've only got a few units painted right now.

    Where did it go???

    And, waiting patiently in the night, Southern Pacific #7562 shows the non-white SPSF paint scheme.

    Where did it go???

    OK, I'm gonna fudge this 'S' entry a little here. I know that the railroad is technically the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and should be filed under 'A', but I just can't resist. I absolutely love the SPSF paint style and #5394 is the best looking of the bunch to me.

    Where did it go???

    And the ever-impressive #652

    Where did it go???

    RImike will probably hate me for beating him to 'R', but Rock Island locomotives sure can look nice.

    Where did it go???

    Well, the only 'Q' railroad I could find was this shot of the Quincy Bay. I had never even heard of this RR until I saw this picture.

    Superior WI

    The SOO line was acquired by Canadian Pacific. I'm not sure of the acquisition date, though. Probably either BNSF or CP was borrowing some horsepower hours from the other.
