Anyone have a close-up shot of that? I've never seen anything like it on this coast. I looked through all my stuff for a close up. No luck. I can say that it is not sand. Depending on which model locomotive that is, it could be the air conditioning unit, or just electrical stuff. If I could read the numbers on those units, I could be more sure. They look similar to the 5500 series, which have a box like that, but I don't think it is as tall as those in the photo. And right now I can't remember which units have those real tall boxes behind the fireman's seat. belmondo wrote: It still makes me sad. I'm glad to see that the SP influence still in evidence.

Heck, they even come out of it clean once in a while EOS 20D
