I just wanted to point out some subtle irony in the December 2008 issue of TRAINS. Page 53 shows a UP freight at Walong, CA, during a pretty standard snowfall. Nothing too wrong here so far, right? Look again. The date of the picture was March 12, 2006. I just find it kind of ironic that while parts of California are getting a light dusting of snow, my city gets plowed with two tornadoes that evening/night. We got the blizzard the next week.lol
Blame it on global warming. [:-^]
Ah…sadly, you’re probably right. This is some screwy stuff.lol
