Not the green patina, which gives it antique charm. I meant the spots around the facade where the copper is outright missing (there's a few of them). I hope they restore those spots. Which prompts my next question: did the plain concrete facing Husdon Place every have a copper facade? It's just so,...

Are they planning on doing any double shipments? 2 locomotives on one ship?

I can't help but be reminded of SeaTrain when thinking about rail equipment across the ocean.

I like the engineers who just take the equipment as fast as it can go. Some of the trains slow a whole bunch & inch into the tunnel, while others slow a lil bit & continue. Why is that speed marker there anyways? Are they afraid a train will sway into the tunnel wall on the curve?
