SCL 1776
Title:  SCL 1776
Description:  SCL 1776 comes to life with a destroyer like cloud of black smoke as a waiting group on a field trip watch the show. This short train, consisting of SCL 1776, ATSF 133 (steam generator car), ATSF 5005 (exhibit car) and SLSF 1776 (caboose), is on display at the Barstow depot. Maybe it's sight of smoke that gave him the urge, but note the gentleman in front of SCL 1776 is lighting one up too.

Title:  My great friend, Jim Matuska (http://matuskarailart.com) painted this beauty to serve as the cover illustration for the 4th Quarter 2011 edition of Lines South (ACL/SAL/SCL Historical Society Magazine). - Bicentennial paint
Description:  For several years, SCL trains 587 & 588 (The Wadley Turn) operated a Santa Train on the last Saturday before Christmas. As I prepared my Lines South article about the Manchester, Georgia based Santa Train, I realized that I needed a much better illustration than my photos. Jim Matuska captured the spirit of the train perfectly by using a compilation of my photos, taken over several years, of this annual train. Thank you, Jim and Merry Christmas - Bernie
