My Santa Fe Lionel U28c pulling the super chief in place of PA's which are out of service. The Lionel U28c is from 2002 and the cars from around 2000. Thanks Gerry!!

Here is my U28CG, same cab # as yours, Dave.
I now have a train up to 16 cars, and am adding an additional U28 to pull it, with a different cab #

The ATSF did not have a dome-obs. But the trains look generlly like the TEXAS CHIEF in the 1960's.
I did see a U30CG once in freight colors at Newton KS. Odd beast.
Is that Super O track on the first layout.

Dominic, yes that is SuperO. It is one great track system. The closest three rail track to scale.
Lehigh valley railroad,
nice picture of your engine and passenger cars. Love those passenger cars.

I’m looking forward to “saying more Santa Fe” when the plated stainless Legacy F-units arrive, along with some plated stainless MTH passenger cars to go with them.

Looking great David. Glad to see that you are enjoying them. However, the cars are from the early 90's -- probably 92 or 93. They really are beautiful ALUMINUM cars.

Don't we already have this thread on the topic of Santa Fe pictures?
Did someone say Santa Fe?
Nice looking U28CG OP!
Here's a blue bonnet SD40. Lionel did a great job getting the road specific details down. I found a prototype picture off google images below.

Nice photos David. There really is something special about the ol Super Chief, regardless of which model is hauling, huh?
Sheesh--get some Pennsy on that layout!!
I think the new additions look great!

I'm gonna be a wet rag here and remind folks that these tin cheesecake "advertising" signs available from a mail-order house have no basis in actual railroad advertising art.
We now return you to our regularly scheduled admiration for the Santa Fe.
