No Escape this Time!<\/p>\n

To compensate for bad luck, and a series of bad timings, I made it a point to photograph Pan Am Railways executive F-unit at Spencer.<\/p>\n

What?<\/p>\n

Just about every time Pan Am Railway\u2019s has run their glossy metallic blue F-units, I\u2019ve either been in the air, out of the country, and\/or at least a thousand miles away and traveling in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n

Not this time. Not at Spencer. No,\u00a0I knew I\u2019d get a photo! Two or three, maybe, and in color!<\/p>\n

I realize that PAR-1 may not have been the chief attraction of the Streamliners at Spencer event, but I \u00a0was very happy to finally see this New England resident up close and in person!<\/p>\n
