"Oh, hey! An RS1!"

Shooting that 1941 Alco tea kettle in Iowa was cool and all, but randomly stumbling upon this 1951 Alco product might have been cooler. It's not every day that you roll over a grade crossing, look to your left and exclaim "Oh, hey! It's an RS1!"

 

Bonus points for the fact that it was a work train, and not the excursion hodgepodge.
