Let me put it this way, my car knew it's way home from Justice to Burbank. But that was back in the day. Now a days, I am straight. Have to be a role model as Safety Guru.

La Boheme? Toscanini did a prime performance of La Boheme in 1946. Luciano Pavarotti as Rodolfo was absolutely the best in my memory.

I'm sorry, the song was O Fortuna. Not to be confused with the sequel, O Fivetuna... a popular song with sea captains.

Catfish is a railfan term. Usually reserved for just the widebodies, esp the GEs. I guess it is because they thinkthe white stripes on the nose looks like whiskers. I never saw it myself, but when I think of whiskers on an engine, I think of PRR and the GG1.
