First go to Google.com click on image search then make shure that safe search is off then type "AMTRAK F59PHI" and click search, when the search results come up scroll to the bottom of the page, click next, scroll to the bottom of the page and click where it says "repeat the search with the omitted results included." and again scroll to the bottom of the page and click number 5 and scroll to the bottom of the page again, and click on the image Dsc_4766e.JPG
1024 x 672 pixels - 270k
but remember theres too images that are the same but one is smaller so click the one thats 1024x672 pixles and when the page comes up click that image again and when that page comes up right click on the image and select "set as desktop back round" and that image is now your wall paper.

Any fine home furnishing store should have something you like, or you can make a custom design for increased cost.
Narf.
I make my own wallpaper, for the computer anyhow. A photo I took, which nobody else has, and I can be proud of it. Recent iterations include a phase 2 file photo from the AmArchives (of 207! BEAUTIFUL!!!), train 48 in dense fog on the morning of June 30, F40 316 on April 1, New207 at various times, and Chi, let's just say it's not train-related.
RoomService, please keep in mind some of us are on dialup and excessively large photos chew bandwidth.
railpictures.net (I think) also has a wide variety of pictures, but keep in mind who the original photographer is at all times.

Being that I'm into Railroad Photography and am a huge Amtrak Fan, I use this photo on my computer currently as the wallpaper. Only difference is the one used for the wallpaper is higher resolution to fill my 1024x768 screen. I took this pic on May 30th, 2003 in North Evans, NY of the Lake Shore Limited.
