But that didn't make it attractive. Petticoat Junction set the
public's image of locomotive aesthetics back 100 years.(?) Now on the
other hand, paint a locomotive lilac purple, line and stripe and polish it
from head to foot, hang the name of a town in brass and garlands of poseys
as well as a gilt-edged portrait of 'er Majesty on it, now THERE'S
aesthetics for you! :-)
