This is a picture---taken from a AAA Michigan Magazine and shows an antique steam-powered locomotive/train of the Huckleberry Railroad all decked out in holiday lights. It is based in Flint, Michigan, and runs from November 25 through December 30. Too bad there were not two pictures, with one showing the locomotive rather than one picture just showing the caboose and line of cars. If you look closely, you can see the cars are old style.

That's a nice copy of a magazine picture, Ron. Did you have to use the descreen setting on your scanner?

Peter,
Actually I used the scanner that is hooked up to my wife's PC because it is quicker to use than my Epson 3200.
She has an old HP S20 scanner that takes 35 format slides or negatives and a flatbed that will take up to 5"x7" photos. This old obsolete scanner does not even have a descreen function.
The only adjustment I did make was for exposure to lighten the pic up a little.

Ron:
Is that train still running during the holidays? I seem to recall taking a dinner theatre ride on it with my wife (or was that another one...I think there also used to be one around Plymouth, Michigan).
