Totally off topic here but, in a way, I'm kinda jealous of your job. That's cuz I've
taken lots of train rides (many of them overnighters) across Russia, Scandinavia
& Europe, and I've found that riding trains can be a cool form of transportation
in that you get to *see* a lot of the landscape, and be relatively comfortable
doing it!

Thank you!
I can hear (but not see) this train from my front porch and happened to be out doing some errands when it was headed south tonight.
I'm actually a conductor on the "City of New Orleans". The same train that was made famous by Arlo Guthrie and then again by Willie Nelson. I am truly fortunate to be able to get paid for something that I'd almost do for free. More times than I can remember I've been told how I must have among the most enviable job there is.
Still a indescribable feeling when children are in awe when their ticket gets punched and always seem to reference "Polar Express".

Kinda like that black one in the upper right of your collection. Actually hoping to get mine to look that good sooner than later, albeit blue though. Like the clean look of no moldings...etc.
