Well, it was actually the Saturday of the holiday weekend, but very apropos. The guys down at the NRHS (National Railway Historical Society) were busy removing an overhead water tank from one of their passenger cars which had totally rusted out over the many years it had been in storage.
The tank itself was quarter inch steel about eight feet long by five feet wide by a foot and a half deep, of which six inches were taken up by rust. If you look closely, you can see the damage it did to the channels alongside where the tank was located. They were cutting it into smaller pieces to facilitate getting it out of the car.
The car itself has a varied history, starting out as a coach, then converted into a diner for Maintenance of Way (MoW) crews, then once more into a mobile MoW classroom. One can still make out some of the Pullman fine striping on what is left of the original panels between the windows.
Atlanta Sunset, Labor Day, 2005
Sorry, but I can't see too many sunsets. There are 365 of them a year and each one is different in every place on earth. One like this makes me sit up and reflect on how lucky I really am.
I have uploaded a number of pics so far from this holiday weekend. There have been so many things to observe and record so there is no rhyme or reason to the pics unless I put them in one big set. Please take a few minutes and look through the set, it's a bit eclectic, but I hope it's enjoyable.
