Nice picture. From that angle it looks cross-eyed.
A face only a mother could love
BTG, F40C and Everyone:
From looking at various photos of the cab cars of the new Acela train I do think
that the front ends remind me of a horse (with the coupler cover doors closed)
I am thinking of famous thoroughbred horses: Secretariat, Citation, Affirmed...
Another thought is that the front end could look like an alligator (the blue top
line from the windshield and above) with the headlight "nostrils" like a nose.
The new Acela train cab motor could be either nicknamed "Gators" or named
for famous horses such as thoroughbred champions or maybe "Mr. Ed"
The picture with the coupler nose open looks like it is "screaming" practically.
That famous painting with the screaming individual comes to mind...
