If someone asked me if I thought I had a better chance of winning the lottery three times or seeing those photos again, I would've bet everything I own on the former. I guess one should never underestimate the power of the Internet!

> Here are a few of those photos:

Although I can't remember what I had for lunch last Friday, I vividly recall photos 3 and 5. The others don't ring a bell. Were they published, too?

It occurs to me that it's unlikely many people younger than my age (55) know anything about these and the similar photos that appeared in Railroad Magazine during the early 1970s.

Anyway, thanks for posting them, Linda. And feel free to post some more!
