Perspective! Respondek Railroad Corporation (RRC) 1239 (née-TRRA 1239, EMD SW1200, 4/1965) sits in East St. Louis, Illinois on the evening of Sunday, December 27, 2020. While the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri is 630 feet tall, an EMD SW1200 is listed just over 14 feet. Respondek Railroad serves a number of customers on the waterfront, switching their operations and interchanging cars to and from other railroads.

just heritage schemes, not just commemorative schemes - this album is devoted to some of the world's most interesting paint schemes, past or present.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
