Finally....maybe I should stop putting off investing in a digital camera...

If you needed any further justification I couldn't suggest it, but perhaps She is in dire need of upgraded equipment...you know....'cuz?  Wouldn't it be a shame if She didn't have use of a fine camera, say a Digital Rebel XT or something like it, by the time, say, oh I dunno, (what was that expected roll-out date again on #1361?)

(what was that expected roll-out date again on #1361?)

From the article:

"Cessna planned to take a contingent of media and project supporters to Scranton this month to see the wheels placed back on the engine. It is expected the locomotive will return for the museum's Railfest, July 7-9, or a week or two after the popular event. "

Don't count on it. If you plan on seeing the 1361 in July, plan on travelling to Scranton.

And putting the wheels back under the engine this month? Don't count on that either.

According to the Railroad Museum in Altoona, 1361 will be back this summer, "IF" reassembly goes according to plan.  "IF" reassembly does not go well, there will obviously be a delay. Which scenario are you betting on?

I wouldn't bet on her being done on time.

I wouldn't bet on her being done on time.

And I wouldn't even call that gambling.
