Early morning, northeastern Ohio  Trains

Rondout, Illinois
What could be better than a little farm with some old tractors on it?  Having it be next to a railroad.  I love the history and romance and hardworking nature of both tractors and trains, and there are a lot of parallels between the two.  As with tractors, my favorite engines are the classic streamlined designs--like these EMD E and F units, shown here in images from George Elwood's Fallen Flag Railroad site.  Click on each of them to go larger versions.
