With Monday being Veterans Day, I went out to the Delmarva Peninsula and shot the Maryland & Delaware's Veterans unit on the run to Roberts and back. They would not have cars to take down, only to take back, but I made the best of the day by trying some new angles and redoing an old one I really loved, even if it was backlit.

Light-onade

Dan, I noticed in your shot of the Maryland and Delaware geep the small "Safety Service" with lightning bolt logo on the front. Small thing, but I thought that's pretty cool. It would be interesting to know about the decision to add that by whomever was responsible for it in the M&D. Those sorts of little things add a lot of interest, at least to me. Don't know why they added the lightning bolt, but I like it. Reminds me of the similar old "Radio Equipped" with lighting bolt logos that were placed on engines and cabooses back when radio communications were being implemented.
