For being sixty two years old it still looks rather futureistic.
Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the link!
I don't know about futuristic. Art Deco maybe. Personally, I think it is so ugly that it is actually cute!

LOL...pretty nice but I was expecting a gorgeous Steam Locomotive of some sort! My dad was a Conductor & we got to ride in lots of steam engines when we took him to work or picked him up. Back in the forties.

Cool train, although it would have been better if the engine had been red.

I think these are all electric, from overhead lines, so the actual engine is probably a gas fire power plant somewhere else in the country. But the elevated engineer's cabin at each end makes it possible to have a passenger seating area at each end of the train with windows looking right down the track. I've taken a few trips on trains that had an observation car at the rear, but it would have been a lot more fun if it had been up front looking forward
