Nice. I like the video!

If all goes well with my paperwork it could be less than a month from now. March at the latest but hopefully sooner than later.

We won't be able to stop many places. With a 7 month old baby and two dogs with us we want to get to Oregon as quickly as we can.

Lets have a contest to see who gets theirs back first. I sent mine back first of the week...

Taking about rolling coal the old GE locomotives if you threw it into throttle #5 (out of 8 possible) it would roll coal enough to cover the whole country side. I used to love to do that to my boss if he was hiding in the bushes, HA-HA
