All I see is a dirty windshield.

Alright, you have now officially taken the position of "Captain Obvious". Check this thread James:

"...and I was in the front and Matt grabbed and pulled my ears from behind me and made horsey sounds."

Ok I will say that looking at that photo, you can see its cracked. But please dont come on here with a photo of a loco screaming and arguing with everyone, when you photo dosent even show that side of the loco. From your photo of witch you orrigonaly posted (along with you photo of X500 eastbound and all I can see is the lead unit) you can not tell that there is anything wrong with it. No if you had said that it was out of view or somthing like that, then no problem. But please show me where in you photo you can see that broken window.

Ok, Matt, not trying to start an argument, and I do apoligize, if it seems that way... But here is the Comparison...

My Trailing Shot of 6959:

Now, I probably misspoke about the cracked windshield, because I call it Busted Out, not cracked, but there is a difference in meanings of the words... so I will change the origional post... pardon me.... :?
