Has anyone seen the changes in the MQT website. Really nice. It has pictures from the Santa train, pictures of the employees, Photos from the picnic this past summer my kids are in some of them. It also has a place for a company store that will be coming soon...

Great! A MQT store! Maybe now we can all have one of those cool Marquette jackets!

And model trains too? Let's all nag on Atlas and have them run a GP38 decorated for 2635! Maybe a few MQT boxcars too!

The site looks quite good. Appreciate all of the info on all of the customers that are served. The pictures load fine in Internet Explorer, but in the gallery when accessing it using Mozilla Firefox, the picture starts to load, then displays this:
Bad Request
Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.
Apache Server at

I've tried this on multiple computers running Firefox, each with the same problem. I'll reply this onto their webmaster...

I'm getting the same message with Firefox, too. The picture loads and then when completed, the page jumps to the error message.
Nice looking site!

Works in Firefox for me, but the title text overlaps some of the pictures.
And I like the titles. "Customer service specialist." Probably not intended as a joke, but I take it as one ;]
But nice to see a railroad actually care about their image. And attracting new business..

I'm pretty sure that's not a joke. I've never seen that before in a railroad context, but when you think about it, you realize that the crews are the ones dealing with the customers most often, thus they really are customer service specialists. It's nice to see a company that realizes that and is willing to say so in such a public forum.
