by dadbill. Here are four engines (two GP9s, two SD9s) in a new photographic 'repaste' series I call Willits' Wonders!
These will go great with Brian Smolke's North Coast Railroad Route, and it's only appropriate I took the screenshots in Eureka on his route.
Now, I shot the photos during the mid 1990s, and I've been working on them on the back burner a little at a time to bring them to you now.
December also markes my one-year mark of repainting/repasting. It was Dec 22nd last year I posted my first 3D Trains' GP7 on train-sim.com.
So there you go! This may be a continuing series, as I dig deeper into the pictures I have of equipment in Willits, we'll see!
Yeah, hey- have fun driving around my pictures (LOL)!

RE: Willits' Wonders

Thanks. Here are some cabooses I posted last week.
'Repasted' from my personal photo collection;
Left:
'DRGW panel caboose', shot in Colorado Springs, CO, 1999, by Dadbill's wife!
Right:
'Laytonville caboose', shot just north of Laytonville, CA, on the side of the road where this caboose sat during the 1980s and 1990s, and you can even see the front fender of Dadbill's car in the right side of the photo.
