Title:
Amtrak 666
Description:
OK, so I have never subscribed to the theory held by some old railroaders that certain equipment is a "Hoodoo," or albatross that bad luck seems to flock to. This is my only photo of #666, seen backing onto the Empire Builder. Either ol' 666 was camera shy and used its supernatural powers to screw up my photo, or this was the last image on a 36-exposure roll of Ectachrome. I'll let you decide!
