Breaking Bad!
Title:  Breaking Bad!
Description:  Traveling down MO I-44 every day to and from work has its advantages...especially when it comes to being a railfan. Today on my way home I spotted the "Breaking Bad Graffiti Box Car" SP 691694. Managing to make it into Eureka, MO. with just enough time to grab the head end power as well as this "tribute" to one of the great TV series on AMC. Painting even comes complete with Walter and Jesse on the brake end of the car. I know, I know....Im the shadow side, but it was worth it.
