Running tail first into DC         
Damp, cold, gray day in Manassas. 3 hours later heavy rain curtailed my southbound chase of a local freight.

Randall Banks General It looks like the three double decker cars in the middle, behind the pull cab unit are old Metra(Chicago) cars. 3/25/2005 12:50:08 PM
Rick Hoar General Not to hurt any feeling Randall, but I wish they had left them in Shy Town. These things are ugly. VRE used to be pure stainless and really looked first class. 3/25/2005 1:52:51 PM
Randall Banks General I actually aggree with ya. I think that the newer, stainless shiny ones that Metra has are far far better. 3/25/2005 5:11:34 PM
Michael Malsam General VRE now has two trainsets leased from Sound Transit that feature two F59PHI's and a group of very nice bi-level cars made by the french company Bombardier. They are really quite nice looking. 4/3/2005 8:41:43 PM
