Jack,

Just so we won't high jack Greg's thread I've started a blog. At present I have four pictures. I have more but they are buried amongst 100's of slides and will take a while to dig out. The four I have were scanned on an old scanner and are not very large. I'll have to rescan them some time for a larger picture.

I chased this train from the River jct. in Bellows Falls all the way to Rutland.

I'm attending Winterrail for the first time this year  I had occasionally thought about going when it was in Stockton, California, but after it moved to Corvallis, OR I had no choice - to miss a nationally known event when it was 30 or so miles away was not an option  Still  I managed to until this year 

Attendance: 403

Does anyone know if roll up type doors were used in warehouses / factories in the 1930's.

I haven't had much success searching the internet or locating a photo.

A bit off topic but the Minnesota Transportation Museum is looking for help to repaint its SDP40 back to Great Northern Big Sky Blue this year. This is one of the only SDP40s left in existence, it was the last working passenger locomotive on a Class I railroad, and any help in preserving this unit would be appreciated!

Here's to hoping that Athearn releases an SDP40 someday to follow up on their excellent SDP45s as well.
