New Paint
Title:  New Paint
Description:  This is a fairly fresh painted unit out of North Little Rock, AR on April 13, 2005. It is former DRGW 5503 which I have shots of before it was repainted. It's always a little sad to see one more part of a fallen flag fall further.

Northbound Manifest Making Pick Ups With an Ex-Conrail
Title:  Northbound Manifest Making Pick Ups With an Ex-Conrail
Description:  Still has her maker lights! I was with a future hardcore railfan from the railroad museum, Parker Thurman, he's 10. Right before this shot, a cop came up and told us to back up...as you can see were plenty far back, so I moved back about 4 inches, just to make him happy, at least he left me alone in time to get this shot, dumb cop.
