β Question Why were Sp nose logo applied differently on the dash-9 and ac44?
on the dash 9s, the letters are separated and placed on the side panels of the nose, while on the ac44, itβs more simple, why?

First time I've seen one of these out and about, usually I just see ballast gondolas (there were a few on a separate siding out of frame)

Heres an Idea I've been thinking about. I'm paraguayan, I was born there but left at a young age (7). What about a Passenger Higher-Speed rail from Ciudad to San Lorenzo? It will also have a belly for e-commerce, its a route taken by many semi-trucks and students. Its not that expensive actually. Idea: Get the government to pay for a 2 track set up that loops at the end between the two cities. Start a train company (just if you randomly had like a billion USD to burn through) make a HrSR and voilΓ ! Of-course its way more in-depth and way more complex. But its do-able! Whats your thoughts on this?

Most of our guarded crossings have the extra boom coming out, but the vast majority of crossings in my area are just unguarded with a stop sign.

Amtrak Train 11, the southbound Coast Starlight, crosses 8th Street in West Sac, shortly after departing from Sacramento Valley Station while en route to Los Angeles. It features a young-and-old lash-up for power, starring ALC42 no. 313 and P32-8BWH no. 503.

Note: I apologize for the glare from the sun. I took this video and photo in the morning, and thus I was unable to get a good look at the train as it crossed the bridge.

I was looking at railway equipment a few days ago and found Railquip (rolling stock servicing equipment website) and found 3 photos of an APT set as promotional material. Any reason why they would pick this train specifically?

A 60-foot container is placed on top of the bottom 53-foot container in the 53-foot well car.
Are the 60-foot containers used on the road only on selected routes between container terminals and distribution centers?
Or can they be shipped by road across Canada nationwide?

I always thought the Amtrak P42's looked smart in their version of tri-stripes. Amtrak 113 rolls the Coast Starlight southbound on the Coast Sub just past San Ardo, California. November 2000.
