I have always liked this tradition on the relatively young Downeaster. Probably worth the cost!
I hope all my HAPT brothers and our many friends have a warm and festive holiday season this year.
Enjoy your friends and family now as you probably should year round. The news headlines are bleak but your spirits don't have to match it. Just remember that poverty is as much a state of mind as it is an economic situation. Prosperity works the same way. Ring in a prosperous new year!
Now, since this is a railroad forum, I must point out that the selection of F40's is pure coincidence and I've never been that fond of them. But, as they disappear, and with few old "covered wagons" to compare them to around, they are beginning to grow on me! Nothing like the combination of winter and passenger trains to lift the railfan's spirits!

Merry Christmas!

Thank you Bernard!
There is a tinge of St. Bernard of Clervaux, but I was borrowing from Adam Smith. There might be an element of Bernard Bear or Bernard Beer mixed in too, if you knew details of the trips.
