So Bob ya managed ta scrape together enough cash ta pay yourinternets eh? Great! The usual suspects were gonna help by dipping int the bj.com 'mergency brother help' fund. But the idea was nixed by the BJPC who needed those funds ta by more prizes for Kersmuss.

I think we have all of those pos ACEs. They are the worst units ever built. Even the reading light sucks.

Saw two on an M-train headed towards the pass/tunnel en route ta Wenatchee. They were almost new, 9300 series units. Uncle Warren's unlikely ta buy any more power for a while, since damn near all trains into/out of Seattle Terminal have declined.

I can't remember what series it was however it was of the 9100-9300's that were not allowed on lead due to the extremely loud cabs. They may have retrofitted them now but when they were first released, they were louder than ANY SD-60...

Progress Rail/CAT now build 'em! I think they're struggling ta stay relevant, while barely making it. The railroads are stalled. They're either booming moving coal, or oil, or intermodal, or auto racks, or junk... At this point, with another possible merger between LAMCO and Canuck Pacific still simmering, anything could happen!

Guess you noticed taconite/iron-ore is one more commodity in the toilet. Uncle Warren's insurance company is floating his railroad right about now!
