You know it's abandoned when the only paint it's seen, in decades, is graffiti.

I've always found it amazing that in the absolute middle of nowhere someone has always managed to bring seven colors of spray bomb material... you know "just in case" -
I've seen railroad cars where the entire sides have been graffitied to about 8' with multicolored, complex designs. It must take dozens of cans of paint, maybe more and time, lots of time. That's an area where model railroad enthusiasts differ, some prefer pristine rolling stock and others want a more "real" look with rust, dirt and graffiti.

I like to mix things up. Rolling stock used to be far more interesting back in the day. Today consists are made up of intermodal shipping containers and chemical tankers, and hard sided autohaulers.
Gone are the wooden boxcars, caboose, flatbed cars with mixed freight, and branded cars for specific products….The Gear...

A GM-EMD E-9. Not a freight, but still a beauty. UP colors are some of the best.

Santa Fe's paint scheme was very nice too. An E6 unit.

Flatbed cars with freshly painted John Deere tractors are one of my favorites.

Tom~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -

@aprazer402 and @SeleniumFalcon -- youse guyses might enjoy the photos of a fellow I "follow" on Flikr: He has lots of his own (AFAIK) photos of Mid-Atlantic trains (in MD, VA, and PA, mostly) past & present, as well as some cool (to me) vintage Mid-Atlantic airport photos. My kinda stuff -- maybe yours, too.

Speaking of trains... way back in the late 60's just outside of town, three teen hooligans were riding around dropping firecrackers from overpasses by the engine of a slow moving freight train. We'd race to the next overpass and drop more. Next overpass they responded by throwing lit flares at us.

Wow! George has taking some outstanding photos. I spent an hour late last night looking through them. 74 pages, of which I viewed maybe a third. Thank you Mark. -
