Description A pair of Seaboard Coast Line (nee' Seaboard Air Line) AlCo RS3's drag a short local past the freight depot in sleepy Clearwater. That was 1968. It's not the same town these days.

The motorcycle looks like a Honda CT-90.
"You meet the nicest people on a Honda", 
and you run the best railroads with an ALCO!

Definitely not the same, indeed. Tourism is the big thing Nowadays.

It depends on your point of view. I've grown up enough (finally) to realize that there is good and bad in everything. Life is terribly boring without change but with change comes stress.

Not the best pix... but the call for AlCos is irresistible!
