Got a few, didn't want to be banned!
I have a few you can view on Railpictures or Louisvillerailfanning.com! This is a NS Forum not a corman forum so I didnt post to corman pics for 2 reasons.

The day that emmett does some railfanning on RJ Corman is the day that hell will freeze over!
Or the Cubs win the World Series ;D
That would be something if the Cubs won the World Series. ;D
8) There was a discussion hear a while back of why Mr. Corman did not make a bold effort to re-hab a native steamer...

Actually, I was at work, racking up 26 hours of overtime in Two days...a much better use of my time.
I am still reeling from the Corman news release, more so this quote.. "Now is the chance to get a glimpse of this country and state's historic past." uh huh..... Looked like the circus came to town to me..that aint steam, thats a travesty
The Cubs win the World Series!!!...a 100 years ago. In 1908 the Cubs won their second WS in a row; Babe Ruth was 13 years old; Adoph Rupp was 7 years old; the CNO&TP was still using 11 tunnels in KY; and the route that Corman's steam engine took Saturday was known as L&N's Short Line.

Looking at the pictures I've seen of that scrap heap so far, all I can say is, Corman really is a peacock, eh?

I'll have to agree with you Emmett,the only thing that seemed to be missing was the clown car full of clowns......or helicopter...... oh wait there was a helicopter full of.....

Because if he woulda got an american steam engine people would have hung rick for repainting it in his RR Colors!

Yep, instead now he buys an engine from a Communist State, and paints it in a color synonomous with Communism. I realize it was his company colors before this occurrence of course, but I think I'd rather be strung out for sticking some red on an American build engine.
So the choice is really Cubs or Corman?
Well personally I doubt rick really cares what the people say about his paint job on the QJ. He has done a good job with trying to bring steam back to Kentucky so for that I pat rick on the back!
I pick the Cubs over Corman. ::)
Butch,
If I had known you were going to be at the east side of the tunnel, I would have made more smoke for you. But with that Pocahontas coal you have to really over-fire to get smoke.

I pick CUBS over Corman anyday
It appears that a Corman-Cubs partnership has developed. At a recent Cubs game, a half-scale QJ prepared to circle the warning track in celebration of a Cubs home run.
