Burlington Zephyr and Pioneer Zephyr trains

« on: July 07, 2009, 03:53:11 PM »

Are they trains or something out of Flash Gordon? Art Deco trains from the E G Budd Manufacturing Co., who specialised in stainless steel.
Pioneer Zephyr

Burlington Zephyr
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Burlington_Zephyr._East_Dubuque,_Illinois,_LOC_image.jpg

(edit) - they're one and the same - the Burlington was renamed the Pioneer after a record-breaking 1000mile dash.
And the burro Zeph was the mascot.
