Some diesels are super nose, like borzois. U50s are literally just the pugs of the locomotive world. They were probably scrapped bc of breathing issues. This is just a persian cat. FLAT.

Probably gonna make this blog ANYWAY but-
It'd be along the lines of what @/bovineblogger has going on! I've really been wanting to further my knowledge of railroads and I think making this blog would be a great way to do so. And it'd be made with another email of mine so that it'd be a main blog!
(also! any url ideas would be greatly appreciated! My brain has run dry lmao)

This is the ideal size to take a jolly jaunt along the line, I mean really it’s big enough for you and at most a small group to trundle along and have a nice evening, truly the whimsical sort of rolling stock. It looks so very polite.

CINDERELLLAAAAAAA
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Me, my father, and my brother all went out to Dollywood today and I nearly cried seeing Cindy pull up to the station. Her fellow engine, Klondike Katie, is currently not working (I believe she broke a part not very long ago) but I'm sure they're taking good care of her as I write this post!
Cinderella and Klondike Katie are both genuine coal burners, and I can attest to this because lovely Cindy got some coal bits on my pants lol. Cindy's got a gorgeous whistle and I am thrilled to have gotten to meet her. The girls are 36" gauge 2-8-2 locomotives originally built by Baldwin, Cinderella is #70 whilst Klondike Katie is #192. Cindy was built in 1938, Katie in 1943, and the conductor who spoke to us on the ride called Cindy a war vet...but Katie is too, because she was built for the US Army Transportation Corp!

The Acela is showing its age, and seeing its replacement parked in a rail yard doesn't help
Seeing Amtrak's next-generation Acela trains parked in a yard in Philadelphia has become of my least-favorite parts of the Northeast Corridor experience.
PHILADELPHIA The train that I boarded in Boston Wednesday afternoon looked more than a little scruffy on the outside. The black seals around its windows had faded in parts to white, the windows themselves showed streaks of dirt, and the paint looked chipped and peeling in places–maybe not a surprise after almost 23 years of hard service on the Northeast Corridor, but still sad compared to what…
