I share your feelings, Marc. The coal hardly seems film- or file-worthy when it's led by filthy pumpkins or warbonnets. And even the cars have lost that sparkle when you used to be able to make out those rose emblems from a distance. But there was a period a year or two ago when there was a solid set of clean blue & white EMD/Oakway SD60s assigned to one of the trainsets. And as is usually the case, it was something I would see rolling through the home turf while en route to or from domestic duties, NOT while I was armed and ready at Park or somewhere equally photogenic. BN green SD60M on the point ain't too bad when you can get it.
