He wasn't being a jerk. I agree with John that the post was uncalled for. You should check your facts before you call someone a jerk on a public forum.

So what is the extra BNSF power? SD40-2s, Geeps, or something else?

Metra F40PHM-2's and MP36PH-3S's. When (whoever said it first) referred to "extra BNSF power" they meant extra BNSF-assigned Metra power. Freight engines don't have head-end power generators for passenger equipment.

They moved 611 and 614 over to the track next to the mains. It looked like they might of had cables connected to a line of out-of-service coaches. We went by kind of fast for me to see clearly.

There Move them to that track becasue there need the room for the hc trainsets that are coming over.That what my source told me who i will not say who that is.

That would make sense, thanks for the info.

Still, watch out for forum moderator Nick Hart.

Huh?

CNW4404,

I think that your comment was totally uncalled for and was a malicious attack on Nick. Given that Nick is not a forum moderator, I think that you likely ment something else but didn't want to say it on the forum. Never the less, I am very troubled by the level of immaturity you have shown on a public forum. I call on the moderators to remove CNW4404's post because it is a direct violation of the guidelines MetraRI put in place.

Lets stop acting like politicians and/or children, end the name-calling and let this whole thing go. Please mind your manners and don't settle personal conflicts in a public setting as it is rude to those who may stumble into the situation unwillingly.

I respect and would like to hear every opinion that anyone may have. Please keep it relivent to Metra, There are sites out there where bashing eachother is a welcome item, I have yet to find that ideal welcome here.

This is a unique place where we can share/compare things we may have missed while we were doing other things. I.E. If it weren't for this site, I think it would be hard for us to track locomotive assignment changes.

Please do not deter others by making them feel unwelcome or uncomfortable by means of insult. I find that to be very rude.

I'll second Scotty's post and request that this discussion end now. I've got the lock in my hand!

CNW4404,

Take your childish antics elsewhere. You're seventeen, and it's time to start acting like it.
