Gee, even us old Curmudgeons can get sentimental, especially around Christmas ...
IIRC, The Disney movie 'CARS' features a Hudson Hornet as the 'wise old curmudgeon' whose advice saves the day for the modern-day punk hotrod hero ...
And I remember one of my friends had cast-metal Hudson Hornet toy car two or three centuries ago that had the wheels mounted on either end of a spring-steel band attached to the casting near the center. I wonder if there are any of these in museums?

p.s. to JBWX - you posted a pic of the K-28's approaching Los Pinos Loop on your site, but where is that GREAT pic of them passing the water tower? And is it O-K with you if I post the Screen Saver revision of the shot of the section house from inside the wye snowshed?
