Does an amout count for a number?

BNSF 3764, leading a consist of, among other things, Tanktrain cars (there is the requested letters as well) prepares to advance as it recieves a "clear" signal.

Show me some other symbol that one can find on a keyboard.

I'm beginning to realize that Windows 10 and sound decoders have a lot in common. There are so many things you have to change in order to get them to work the way you want.

Orange and black B&O F7s?

Yep, the B&O bought ten A units and ten B units from the Bessemer & Lake Erie and put them in service before painting them blue.

They did find time, however, to place the bronze Capitol emblem on the nose doors, though Yes
