    And yes,,,,I guess the GN is good..but you are talking to a BN fan!!!!![:D]
  • WHATTTTT IS THIS BN C...R...A...P... THE BN IS JUST RMMONENCE OF THE GREAT RAILROADS THAT FORMED THE COMPANY. Any whay about those 45 the sound is music to my ears, i have to say i like the hole spectrum SW1's and on th other side sd45.
    MAx how could the 700 be idling if the picture was taken last week when the thing has no batteries or fluids?LOL
    seee ya
  • Its a figurative metaphor Kale....... lol
    Chris, what I meant was we were talking about the noise level from inside the cab of a switcher.
    GO GN!

  • Ohhhh. well not being a one who works with real trains (yet) I wouldnt know...[B)]

    And GO BN!!! [(-D] This could continue on for quite a while....
  • Athough even thoough there is only omaha orange, pullman green, and yellow running through my veigns, i have to say that the formation of BN saved the GN from the travisty that was "big Sky Blue" What a horrid collor sceame that was( puking noises resinate from the computer room)[xx(]
    Allthough max you could say that the 700 was idling because while you were up ther I herd some horriable noises that was i think supposed to be reving of the loco. coming from eather you or the shultz boyLOL JK, there have beentimes were my immagination ran whiled too.[(-D]
  • That was James.

    I agree on the big sky blue thing. UGLY!!!
