Seaboard Coast Line view of a former Atlantic Coast Line modernized heavyweight Pullman car that is located in the railroad yard at Lakeland, Florida, 1970's. This Pullman car was still lettered for the ACL and appeared to be used in work train service. The metallic steam train line had been removed from this car. This car had a streamlined roof profile, although it was higher than the lightweight cars approximately 4 to 6 inches. The car had modernized trucks with the installation of roller bearings and it also had skirts, retrackable steps, dutch doors and tightlock couplers and modernized flat ends. No doubt when this car was in passenger service it also had a refurbished interior, maybe in a more modern motif. To the left is another heavyweight Pullman car use in work train service. This car's road number appears to be # 1131.
Silky sharks are elegantly streamlined. I love the bronze highlights from my strobe and the nice blue color sweep from the sun.
Streamlined 1930s GG1 electric locomotive of the Pennsylvania Railroad, in Union Station as part of the centennial celebrations. This is number 4935, from the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, nicknamed "Blackjack." Top speed of these art deco beauties was 100 mph; obviously we haven't progressed much beyond that today. Conditins were very dark and the locomotive was black, so I had a hard time getting a decent shot of it.

Star exhibit at the Train World railway museum in Schaerbeek, Brussels must surely be 12.004, one of a small class of streamlined SNCB 4-4-2s that were new in 1939. They were designed to haul express trains from Oostende, but had little chance to show their paces before World War II and Nazi occupation intervened. The loco remained in service until 1962.

This former Illinois Central observation car was on stored on a siding waiting to be transferred to a private owner in Tampa, Florida, 1973. This car appears to have been built by the Pullman Company as a smooth side, welded steel, streamlined, lightweight observation car. This location is a few blocks to the West of Tampa Union station. The old car appears to be in fairly good shape with only a small amount of rust, but has quite a bit of pealing paint and some broken windows that are boarded up. The siding used for storage is a SCL track.

An unidentified streamlined LMS Coronation pacific on the West Coast Main Line, possibly taken during WW2. The engine is one of the first five built (6220-6224) although between 1939 and 1943 6220 was renumbered 6229 and vice versa (the real 6229 went to the USA in 1939 disguised as 6220).
Here is my streamlined Hudson locomotive with its accompanyiing tender.
I am open to ideas for a name and number for the train. The locomotive is currently operating on the Lego Loco Land Railroad.
San Francisco Municipal Railway (1950s)
Built 1948 • Operational
When the Presidents’ Conference Committee (PCC) of U.S. street railway executives got together in the early 1930s to design a better streetcar, they wanted to get away from the boxy double-ended streetcars that then ruled the streets, opting instead for a streamlined, single-end design that was more automotive in look. This single-end “PCC” streetcar would require streetcar companies to install loop tracks or switches in the shape of a “Y” to turn the cars around at the ends of lines, but this was considered a fair tradeoff.
No. 1006 posing with dignitaries shortly after delivery in 1948.
Not for everyone, though. The San Francisco Municipal Railway required that its first two orders of streamlined streetcars be double-ended: the five so-called “Magic Carpet” cars of 1939 (PCC-look a likes with different operating systems, whose livery is modeled by car No. 1010 today); and the ten true PCC-equipped streamliners delivered to Muni in 1948.
The ten 1948 PCCs, numbered from 1006 to 1015, were known at Muni as “Torpedoes” because of their shape, and later also known as the “Big Tens” to distinguish them from the 25 smaller single-end PCCs, numbered from 1016 to 1040, which were known as the “Baby Tens.”
No. 1006 on a fan trip over the original F-Stockton streetcar line. The Stockton Tunnel was originally built for streetcars.
The Big Tens were among the largest PCC streetcars ever built, exceeded in length only by Chicago’s single-end behemoths. They were delivered in what was then a brand-new livery for Muni: green bodies with cream trim, with what resembled feathers of cream extending toward the center of the car from each door. This was quickly dubbed the “Wings” livery, and it was applied to every Muni streetcar and bus by about 1950.
The mystery of Muni’s insistence on double-ended PCCs was deepened by the fact that they only ran them initially on lines that already had loops, making double-end cars unnecessary. By the mid-1950s, Muni converted its 15 modern double-end cars to operate as single-enders, by sealing the doors on one side. Around this time, these cars were painted to match the single-end PCCs, with the “Wings” only stretching back from the now-front doors.
Muni is currently restoring two of its original Torpedoes to their original 1948 livery. No. 1006 operated through the end of regular Muni PCC service in 1982, and was then reconverted to a double-end car for service in the Trolley Festivals of the mid-1980s.
No. 1008 was reconverted to operate from either end in the 1980s as well — but as a service car, towing broken-down cars on the street and carrying out tasks in the Muni Metro Subway after hours (for which it was fitted with a pantograph, now removed).

The Streamlined Classical style building was funded by the Public Works Administration (PWA). It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011 (NRHP No. 11000455 as the Tennessee State Office Building).

Recent shift to AMC enables streamlined logistics services
By Sgt. 1st Class Jeff Troth
jefferey.l.troth.mil@mail.mil
CAMP CASEY, SOUTH KOREA – The logisticians who look after Warrior Country’s transportation, maintenance and supply needs are now able to provide even more robust services thanks to a recent change that gives them broader, faster reach into the Army’s overall logistics network.
The U.S. Army Garrison Red Cloud and Area I’s Directorate of Logistics ran the Central Issue Facility at Camp Hovey and the transportation motor pools that provide buses and vehicle maintenance in Warrior Country.
They did that as part of the U.S. Army Installation Management Command, of which USAG Red Cloud and Area I is a part.
But, effective Oct. 1, all Army DOL assets shifted from IMCOM to the U.S. Army Materiel Command. AMC is a global command that supports Army logistics worldwide.
The shift plugs in the DOL to AMC’s global logistics network.
And in Warrior Country, DOL is now part of the 403rd Army Field Support Brigade Area I, said DOL director Dennis Williams.
For Warrior Country customers, that’ll mean that when one of the 403rd AFSB’s facilities in Warrior Country runs low on an item – helmets or vehicle parts – for example, they can be shipped from another facility that does have them, even one in, say, Japan, Williams said.
The transition will not pose any confusion or inconvenience for DOL customers, he said.
“For Area I it will be transparent,” he said. “The services we did yesterday are the same services that we’ll do today and tomorrow.”
The Area I DOL marked the shift to AMC with a low-key patch-and-pin ceremony Oct. 3 at Camp Casey’s Carey Fitness Center.
There, DOL’s Soldiers traded in their seven-sided IMCOM patch for the shield-shaped AMC patch, while civilians received an AMC lapel pin.
“On behalf of the Army Materiel Command I want to welcome you to the new AMC family,” Col. Michael Lopez, commander of the 403rd AFSB, said during the ceremony.
For the more than 300 DOL Soldiers, Department of the Army Civilians and Korean civilians in Warrior Country, the 403rd AFSB is now their higher headquarters. But, they’re not alone. On Oct. 1, the 403rd also took command and control of all DOLs in Korea, Japan and Okinawa.
The changeover process was set in motion in March 2005 when the leadership of IMCOM and AMC decided to develop a logistics partnership to improve support to the Army and the Army’s transformation plan.
This semi streamlined mountain type steam locomotive is part of the last class of steam locomotives ever built in Soviet Union, and one of the best passenger locomotives class ever built, the Победа (victory) class . It was built in 1956 and although withdrawn from regular service in the 1970's, the whole class was kept in working condition as reserve locomotives until the late 1980's and they often hauled train, as "maintaining runs", to make sure they were in proper state.
The plate above the star reads "1869-1956 10,420 [the loc's serial number] The last steam locomotive built at the Kolomna factory"
