With the two previous “Caption This” topics, I decided to start one of my own with some weird pictures I found on the web.
Photo #1:
This gives the term “Piggy Back Train” a whole new meaning.

This is this engine’s last run before it’s scrapped and so all the railfans in India are trying to get a chance to ride on its final trip.

They’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel for motive power these days!
#1.We’re the All Blonde Railroad, and this is our idea of a double stack train. #2.This was the only passenger train on this branch line before the rails were torn up,and every mileage collector in the world is riding to get the rare mileage.[:p] #3.Peter Pan was the engineer,and he thought if he could make children fly,he could make trains fly,too! #4.My TO said train #1 has rights over train #2. Thats funny,MINE says train #2 has rights over train #1. #5.Call Omaha, we’ve been in this siding WAY too long.
#3: “Oh. the floor pedal opens the firebox doors? I thought it was the brake! so much for my cab ride.” #5: “I should have known you were a railfan! And I beleaved you when you told my students that there was an indian graveyard here!”
The real reason so many tracks in central Illinois were being torn up-the unruly East St. Louisans were doing this to steam locomotives in the past, you don’t want to know what they do to Double-Stacks and SD70MACs![}:)][;)]
If you have never heard anything about St. Louies’ east side, don’t worry none of it is good.
Here are two more pictures for your enjoyment to caption. You’ve thought of some really great responses so far! Let’s see what you can come up with for these.
