The Old Steamer is classic, but that maroon E8 is a beauty. That's the look I remember, in the 50's and early 60's, as a 6 to 12 year old train enthusiast in Lansing, Illinois, just southeast of Chicago. The PRR ran on tracks from Chicago down thru Lansing and points Southeast and eastward. I was too young to look into where it was heading. I just remember the thrill of it going thru our small town on the way to somewhere. Really got a kid's imagination going. Big, Powerful Engines!!
