RUSSIAN

 GM&O ?

It sounds incredible today, but you can still see a lengthy passenger train operating in GM&O colors, (complete with grime) with a late 1930's Milwaukee Road look thrown in for good measure.  The above photo was taken on the run in the Moscow, Russia's Kazansky Station in March, 2000 during my recent visit there.  Hopefully I can come up with something of better quality in the future.  You can get the idea though.

The currently operating Russian passenger train at left also brings to memory the former Milwaukee Road dining car, number 1077, that operated on the GM&O.  The car appears to have been out of service by the time the above photo was taken.  Could the Russians have been influenced by the GM&O colors?  Who will know!
