Even better, someone have a gallery? (the colors make me think SteveB, but
???). I've got the 1960's version in big sky blue.

PS, it looks like there was a second take on the same train that was running
during the show (the above looks like it is all dark green with longer cars
while the one below looks to be shorter, have a mix with regular green and it
has a yellow stripe above the windows).
