arrgghhh!! Uckaaahah!! Blecchhh!! That's the sound of me biting my tounge because I know you're an engineer. Based on what I've seen of new trains (and that's been a LOT lately) the engineers that design them don't really understand what the guy in the field really wants or needs. BTW, the term you're looking for to describe someone who drives the train is "Motorman". Heavy rail also calls him the "Hog Head". = Don't go there....

Me? I'm just the guy who passes along electrical troubleshooting information so I guess you'd call me a ..... (groan)....semi-conductor.
