This reminds me of a LFCD flat I photographed down in Durango circa 2006 or so. Very similar, I think their car was a bit newer but not by much since in Mexico the rules are a tad different (or so it

The ends of the cars in the photo's of the 27001 series are rather unique. Did these cars also use the standard USRA end? Bill Pardie Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone
