Seller "Embitt" has an amazing collection of DAR slides, along with Halifax station, New Brunswick and Quebec Central.

Have a look and let the bidding wars commence!

He does. Wish I could buy them now rather than go through the hassle of bidding.

This is the best colour shot of M-107 that I've seen so far: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/401032041997?_tr ... EBIDX%3AIT

Yes, the best lighting I've ever seen.

I'm still trying to figure out how to create one in MSTS. Wayne Campbell created eight 1940 cars for MSTS years ago but he used some #D program you can't get anymore. They are over 4000 polygons and I'm surprised they ever got into MSTS in the first place.

Wow. That's quite the price. The shot is really alive with the kitchen staff off the back of observation car 6616 talking to the boss. This is the second almost iconic shot of 6616 as well. Remember the shot of her on the Digby wharf with the soldiers in the background and the '51 bullet-nose Studebaker in the foreground?
