1522 is turned after arriving from the east with a troop train and is quickly put back to work running eastbound. I have the feeling I have posted these before, but if not enjoy.

Your Newburg is almost as smoky as the real one up to '51. Thanks Photoshop.
I remember mom hanging her wash out to dry in Dixon and having to beat off the ashes prior to '51.
Wish I knew Photoshop in and out. I oughta take a class in it.
I see the photos went up in the reverse order that I wanted. Oh well, you get the idea.

Wow! I really thought that the first picture was the REAL 1522! That's awesome! Great work Don. Very much appreciated!

Don, they don't look familiar or redundant. I'm glad that you were able to squeeze in a few pics before the roundhouse foreman made you r-u-n-n-o-f-t (for any fans of the movie "O' Brother, Where Art Thou?").
Thanks for sharing.

Don,
Would you be upset if some of your photo's were used for my desktop background? They are great and I'd love to use them!

I don't have a problem with you using them. I figure once they are posted on the net anywhere it's open season on them.
