A NEW LOOK, NEW STORES

AP&W SD40 3163 has received a face-lift.
BEFORE: This is the unit as it appeared in the mid-90's, just after the snowplow was painted white for increased visibility.

AFTER: This is the unit as it looks today, after the addition of ditch lights to the front end. As for the white-painted snowplow, you now see the reason why most railroads don't paint their equipment white!

The Kibri Apartment Building has finally found a new tenant! Olde English Flower Shop has moved into the end storefront on the right. Note the flowers set outside. A the other end, Cut & Curl Beauty Shop is now open for business as a woman converses with her husband before entering. Reportedly, someone is looking at one of the remaining two storefronts for a health-food store.
