The AT&SF passenger trains with Red Bonnets and Yellow Bonnets for power. Red Bonnet is a Lionel FT with a Menards unpowered FP and the Yellow Bonnet is a MTH DAP release from many years ago. The Yellow Bonnets are pulling the Gold Bonnet passenger cars.

I have a bizarre mind, I guess. I was looking at those cool pictures of your red and yellow bonnet locos, and thinking about Spence's comment about black bonnet, and all that I could think was that silly old phrase about how to tell a coral snake from a common milk-snake "Red and yellow kill a fellow . . . "
Very interesting how the yellow bonnet locos looks so good with the gold bonnet cars by the way . . . .
