Streamliners!

Carole and I went to the NC Transportation Museum today to see a once-in-a-lifetime display of old streamliner locomotives. I'm not a huge railroad fan, but we figured we should see this before the vast number of operational machines are all carted off to various museums around the nation.

Details tomorrow. Maybe.

The bulk of the locomotives were on display in this area.

There were more than 40 of these grand streamliners at the museum. Almost all of them are operational.

Absolutely gorgeous machines.

In the old locomotive repair building at the museum.

This locomotive was probably my favorite of the lot. So Carole and I got a fellow to take our photo with it.
