True artistry. And I don't even like E-6s or the RI passenger scheme. Your setups and layouts are probably the best ever done.

And yes they look right on this forum not sure why they get so pixelated and compressed elsewhere. This was a 36.3 megapixel capture to start with!

Second Bob's comment, like a friggin' time machine. You may want to consider publishing your own "colorized" version of Beebe's "High Iron."
I have no doubt you could it, seeing is believing.

Hello Eric

Wow great photo .....36 megapixel ... it's all about size

your engine from the number board 631 .... I remember in the Blue Island, Rock yard ( a sometimes rolling museum of antique diesels) ...#630 shovel nose lived there for many years, one step ahead of the torch .. glad it was saved .
Thank you for posting the lovely image
Cheers Carey

Hard to say. Different software, etc.

Give it a try over on the OST forum; btw, I've been busy over there making a lot of changes to the entire web site. :wink:

Blasphemy, Bob!! How can you not see that the E-6 was the sharpest car bodied diesel ever, particularly in Rock Island or Burlington livery?? :lol:

Just kiddin', Bob. To each his own.
