And I have let little boys with there kids in tow on the engine let them play with the horn and rev the engine release the brakes and just have fun at the controlls. Someday ( when I know i wont get caught) I will give some lucky person a ride on the lead unit looking at what i see feeling what i feel it be about a 60 mile ride down the main at track speed. ( I hope i can get them off the engine at that point) . <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Wabash- <br /> <br />I agree about the closet railfans. It is amazing how many you see at museums or excursion trains. <br /> <br />60 mph!! I wish our district was that fast. Best we can do is 50 mph except for when we get on NJT (haven't done thaqt in quite a while as I would have to swap terminals...). So, maybe I'll come out there and bump somebody...lol...are you on the Nickel Plate Agreement? <br /> <br />LC <br />3...2...ON the STOP! BANG![:D] <br />
