Good luck in school.

There is no such thing as a bad day of railfanning. So many trains, so little time.

Knowlege well learned and applied is one of the greatest treasures you personaly can own that is yours and no one elses. Read well and deeply, think reasonably and openly, but don't let your brains fall out . Only one thing I recommed that you do before you depart from the forum. Get your bearings to the forum, that is where a lot of folks know you with out ever having layed eyes on you and are happy to hear from you. Good luck - Piouslion[^][8D][bow][bow][bow][8D][^]

WAIT JUST ONE GOSH-DARN MINUTE!!!!

Since when are all those things you named more important than trains?!

YOU ARE A RAILFAN.
You have dedicated your life to being able to tell the difference between a Big Boy and Challenger from the front, to knowing the difference between approach limited and limited approach, to being able to interpret brake gauges even though you don't work for a railroad, AND TO BEING OBSESSED ABOUT TRAINS! And now you abandon us for cars!!!! Those cars had better have flanged wheels and a weight-on-drivers greater than 150,000 lbs to justify diverting your attention from trains. Before you leave us for a while, take a look at these pictures:

Are you reminded of why we are railfans?

I'll be going back to school tomorrow myself. They say, "have fun," although we never do.

See you around the forums,

Daniel [:)]

Chris has already accomplished more in his lifetime than many of us could ever dream of doing.

He is diesel certified.

He is Boiler certified.

AND if that wasn't enought when he completes his senior year in high school will be serving his country in the U. S. Navy.

Chris is one young man with a level head on his shoulders and a bright future ahead of him.

We should all be proud of him, I bet his parents sure are.
