    Here's another cool shot I found on Facebook. Taken in the town I grew up in. College Point Blvd at 14th avenue mid 70's I would guess.

    Love the the maverick with the F9. I'm an engineer with the KCS. We have 2 A-units and 2 B-units. The streamliners were the best looking engines. They are a kick to run.

    Mine's been a daily snow driver so far, but we don't salt roads in Calgary. We just layer them with about 7 feet of gravel.

    I love old photos like these.
    Everything just seems, simpler, calmer.

    Looks like possibly a big bumper Comet in that pic as well. 6th car down from the top in the row of parked cars.
