Nicely done, Doug.  The 100 is simply  a stellar lens for many applications.
Nice bokeh too! ;-)

Although I doubt many on this list are into railroad books, but if you run a
cross a copy of the book "The American Diesel Locomotive" by Brian Solomon,
published last year by MBI, I have a photo on page 120 that was made with
the 100 APO.  Incidently, there a number of photos in this book from the
'60s credited to Richard Jay Solomon.  Those were all shot on Leica M's.
