NOPB GP40's
Title:  NOPB GP40's
Description:  This isn't the shot I wanted. I wanted a shot of the locos passing East Bridge Tower, but the Engineer yelled at me, waving some hats! And not just any hats, they were 100 year NOPB aniversary caps! Even though we were still a few month's from Mardi Gras, what the heck - "Throw me somethin' mister!" And he did. I traded the hats for the shot and I think I made the right decision. This is what I got in the aftermath.
