Humorous and unusual would be even better... Laugh [(-D]

What's funnier, is that the ad that came up on the top of the page read "I recieved my refund quickly"

In an effort to maintain a solid history of locomotive crew safety features, Norfolk Southern has announced the latest in its line of modified high-hood locomotives, the SD70MH. Pictured below, the SD70MH offers locomotive crews unprecedented and unparalleled protection in the event of head-on collisions as well as from front-on flying debris. It also offers the extra creature comforts of extended head room in the crew facilities of the locomotive cab. At the forefront of innovation, the SD70MH is certain to set the standard for a new generation crew-safe locomotives.
