I think i’d be fun to pick my girl up for a date in a GP 40-2, don’t you?
What paint colors does she like ?
Not if you’ve ever been in one.
They are noisy, everything inside rattles, and what doesn’t rattle has already fallen off, they are slippery, ride rough, and just generally are yucky.
Of course, they are locomotives, so that makes them cool from the start.
I used to give my wife rides on my F40PH’s (and no, we hardly did anything kinky up there [although, there was that one time…]). Too bad she did not appreciate the noise level of the prime mover in constant run8.
YAAA ROUGH! YUCKY!
Hey, whatever floats your boat. All’s fair in war, checkers, [censored], and [censored]!
I have taken some of my many, many girlfriends railfanning and they usually got very bored very quickly, except for (name withheld because she can whup my [censored] if I mention it!), who saw 765 along the Nickel Plate en route to Mudville, USA for a series of trips that year. BTW, Kel, I think you do not have access to this do you?[:-^]
Ok, of course I was just in a strange mood. But now… especially since it’s mostly off limits… I have to see if somehow I can get up into one of these things. But it’s gotta be a freight loco. None of that sissy passenger stuff (they might be clean). I wonder how I’m gonna do this! -I’m married anyway!
My wife was on a live locomotive once–didn’t really enjoy it.
I knew another female, though…
You know if I had a chance to pick up a girl in a locomotive it would have to be an SD70 or even an Amtrak Genis engine now those are my two chooses for picking a girl up.
if you don’t wanna get any…
GP60. The only way to fly.
Did it , SD45 , did it , SD40 , did it GP30 , did it …etc, etc, etc, … got lucky too ! I miss those days.
So which locomotives do the chics dig?
Well … the one that had the biggest payoff for me ,was an MP15-AC…Indeed a 100 ton ,1500 HP, vibrator…
I was planning on pulling up in my girl’s “driveway” [(-D] in a Red Barn myself. [:P] [:o)]
With tinted windows of course. [8D]
ok, wait just one minute… can your barn make toast?
Yeah, ummm… let us know how that goes…
[(-D]
If not, I’ll have that option factory installed. [:o)][:P]
Call me an oddball, but I’d be elated if my husband picked me up in a locomotive — ANY locomotive!
That said, I’m eternally grateful to one Randy Stahl for granting me access to my first locomotive cab: Wisconsin Central SD45 No. 7501, now retired. Randy, you’ve spoiled me.
However, I’m lined up for another cab ride later this month at the Indiana Rail Road. Maybe I’ll get to ride one of their SOO SD60s? Can’t wait!!

We have one hot looking readheaded court clerk in one of our little towns who loves to come out for a “Ride”. Right out of ZZ Top…She’s got LEGZ…
Whoops, got carried away there…sorry Mook…

Just don’t ride the MP15AC - you may never want to go back to work.
