I can't express my sadness of the passing of my great friend, Joseph Boardman. I'll share a happy memory. Mom & I had just attended DC @ASLRRA convention. Joe, @AmtrakBrian, Mom @philhancock & I talked about freight & passenger rail working together & how that would save RRing.
Before heading to Railway Interchange, I finished drawing a Santa Fe GP35. It will be part of an upcoming Santa Fe poster. I plan on drawing quite a few new drawings when I get back to Davis.
It was great to stop by the Railpower booth and say Hello at Railway Interchange in Omaha. Railpower has built several of the locomotives for one of my local @ASLRRA member railroads, Sierra Railroad Company.
@michiganstateu has a great Railway Education program. Stop by and say Hello to Val and Rachel at Broad College | Center for Railway Research and Education Programโs Booth #3040 at Railway Interchange
I am starting to get my booth set up at Railway Interchange . I will be giving out my โAmericaโs 259thโ Maintenanceof Wayโ and โABCโs of Short Linesโ books here at booth 3135. See you tomorrow through Thursday here in Omaha.
Today I drew Southern Pacific GP38-2 4817. I used to see SP GP38-2s on the local train in Davis and Woodland. I am also working on a new Southern Pacific poster and magnet set.
Many Americaโs 250th Locomotives have been released since my Americaโs 250th First 5 Locomotives poster. I look forward to exhibiting this week at Railway Interchange in Omaha with my Americaโs Railroads Celebrate Americaโs 250th Birthday & my M of W books. See you at booth 3135!
Today I finished a drawing of OmniTRAX, Inc. GP40 #4017. OmniTrax is a member of @ASLRRA that provides rail service and industrial development solutions.
