Thanks, they have really helped, plus I got some good picks of the 8-32BHW's at work, did they work mainly on the San Diegans?

The -832BWH's started their careers based in Chicago, pulling short-haul trains all over the Midwest. I saw them many times running through St. Louis to Kansas City, occaisionally in the company of a P42. I have seen photos of trios of them on the Southwest Ltd. as well.
