The George H. W. Bush locomotive was a nicely done project that honored a guy who did not deserve it, IMHO. He served in WWII, survived being shot down and got back in the saddle. That is admirable. My hometown was full of men that did as much or more, and the most they got was a small rectangular plaque on their gravesite.

The Lincoln locomotive is also nicely done, and I consider the dark trucks and underframe to be more tasteful.

“The Lincoln locomotive is also nicely done, and I consider the dark trucks and underframe to be more tasteful.”

Kind of a letdown for me. A better Lincoln tribute would be a 4-4-0 steam locomotive, the ubiquitous engine for his day. Oh well, I guess the cost to operate it would be to high.
