    The Rock Hopper, faded glory. Back in the '70s or '80s on the Houston Belt and Terminal railroad near the Ship Channel, I saw a line of bright new Rock hoppers, never forgotten.

    I worried that the MOW truck in Hesperia was going to get stuck in that rainy gumbo beside the tracks. Loved the First Responders, Veterans, and Breast Cancer locomotives and also the javelinas in Texas and the big raptor soaring over the military train in OKC. Another great one!

      I've seen it later and once again hugely enjoyable. Good getting loco. no. 1111 like that and I spotted 1107 later in the video. Now what exactly was that train at Roanake that looked like Pittsburgh in the 1940s? Certainly reminiscent of the steam era. Another great sequence to finish with; it's all good. But the opener from Hesperia was as good as anything...👍👍👍👍
