One photo by Roger Puta, probably the most prolific railroad photographer of all time. Also, he was gay. More about Roger Puta: https://unrollnow.com/status/1285953215196991488 1944-1990.
An imposing shot of a forward-facing diesel locomotive with a red nose and the number 635. Two men are seated in its cab, and a bridge is in the background, as smoke puffs out of the locomotive's side.

Amtrak 4316, an EMD E8 streamlined diesel locomotive in all black, with the Amtrak "pointless arrow" logo leading into blue and white diagonal stripes on its nose.
To start this account, why not post what's possibly Roger's most iconic photo, this snap of Amtrak 4316, the one-of-a-kind Day One livery.
