Hi all,

I was just browsing youtube this morning and I came across this video:

Doing some more resource, I learned that this newly incorporated railroad is actually the (new) Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway; this is possible because the railway name hasn't been owned since the original Rock Island's liquidation in the 80's. The owner of the line even went as far as to add an original Rock Island P5 horn to the unit.

Since I was born after the Rock's bankruptcy, I think that this is one of the coolest things I've seen in along time.

Thoughts?

Nick
