Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

I hear NS and UP are taking a thousand each (of the loco not the "dragster", OC)..

seriously it would be interesting to see if any of the standard gauge "mainline" locomotives are bought by US customers. I would imagine though, that the list price on these would be an considerably higher than used Sino-steam (i.e Chinese QJ's).

Will there be a liscensed Steam Engineer as driver aboard?   (IT is English, after all!),

      and will the union require a Fireman to ride and handle the boiler controls..Captain
