Santa Fe freight train crossing the Missisippi River lift bridge.

I photographed this digital live sound video last year, at the Oak Park Society of Model Engineers,H.O Scale Model Railroad Club. I have been a lifelong fan of the former Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad myself, as this was one of many railroads I had grown up with in the windy city during the 1960's, 70's and 80's eras. Seen here is my 1960's era Santa Fe freight train being led by an Athearn model of a Santa Fe EMD GP 35, and a plain brown pre 1966 era Santa Fe steel cupola caboose on the rear.
