Wow, you guys really bring back memories, and good luck to anyone with the patience to model the third rail. I lived near the old Chicago, Aurora and Elgin tracks when I was a kid. I remember hearing about a kid who was killed when he fell into the rail while taking a country hike along the line, and I was always afraid when my dog was temporarily lost, not realizing animals probably have instincts about such things, as they did just before the Tsunami in December. Sorry this is off the modeling topic. It will probably be taken off, and that's okay, too. You just hit a memory nerve with me. I'm glad those juiced rails are gone.
