Great shots---I think the newer passenger locomotives are looking more European than ever,here's a French passenger diesel---call me old fashioned but nothing looks better than a steam locomotive

I have not yet been lucky enough to spot one of these yet. Gotta get pictures of the HHP8s and AEM7s soon though... soon the only electrics will be these ACS64s and a few AEM7-ACs.
