      Welcome, EH? Canuck here too....lol. Is the sign Plastic or metal? Size? Anything on the back? The fact that it has an 3D (raised) design to it will make it more interesting to collectors....as it also give it some *motion*

      Nice sign.......BUT We do Not do values here...

      Rode it before the fire that shut down the pair. Great in the back of the eng. car where they have a lounge & you could watch the engineers & gauges. I knew I had traveled the same rails on the diesel/elec. & they had that rocking motion. When I asked a conductor why we didn't have that with the turbo, he said,"We are moving so fast that the rails don't have time to settle in the ballast.(gravel under the ties). Great ride! Luv the sign & memories!

      Incredible font design on that piece--very elegant, modernist look. Love the colors.
