Rainbow Lashup
Title:  Rainbow Lashup
Description:  After catching two west bounds (DME 6055 and ICE 6448) we went back over to Memorial Siding to get a meet shot. When we got there we saw this train tied down without a crew waiting to go. Quite the colorful lashup on this one! It was also nice to see a former QNSL unit still running as well.
