David Barrentine General Nice shot and a nice looking locomotive. Did they happen to preserve this paint on the locomotive? To a museum maybe, or did they just paint back over it. 12/4/2011 8:08:40 PM
Bryan Smith General I don't think it was preserved. It would have looked nice in a museum. 12/11/2011 5:00:40 AM
