Vman: more often than not, threads on the Railwire take sudden and unexpected off-topic turn. This is a perfect example. So, don't get mad or try to fight it - ride the wave of silliness and enjoy the ride. But you can always reintroduce some topical post into *YOUR* thread, if you are so inclined (as you just did) - nobody will mind.

Good to see you making progress. Photos would be nice too.
