This is cool

Interesting.
The type of large graphics, so large that they only partially fit on the object, like the RR sign plastered onto the nose of this loco (or like the new "heads" design on a nickel, or some other contemporary logos) is not my thing, but I guess that's what the cool kids like nowadays.

This is the subject of one of my favorite consistent photoshops, not only because I'm 14 and think male genitalia is funny, but also because a friend of mine was involved in the design of the engine and it's been incredibly fun watching him do the "no no, I think it's funny, I swear" dance.

Ya' know, what disturbs me most about that picture is I immediately recognized it as NOL... from riding the Crescent 40 years ago.   :scared:
