A job well done to both Otto and Kyle. Beats the heck out of reading one of those books put out by the book mills, in that the facts are spot-on, the photos identified correctly, etc...

Nicely done.

Agreed, a very good article. More factual and better written than some of the stuff in railfan magazines.
