I know, I'm new and full of a lot of rookie type questions- sorry
Basically, I am really into the first and second gen diesels. Since I am between Pittsburgh and Altoona, and the age factor (52), I never experienced electrics or steam. I grew up in a Pennsy railroad town, Pitcairn, PA, and as a kid the bulls spent a lot of time walking me out of the yards. Now since the the RR passion in me is back with a vengence, looks like the Norfolk & Southern bulls will be taking me for walks! Although these days, I think trespassing on RR property is a federal offense? I am trying to understand steam equipment and am having a hard time. So many types and classes! Can anyone suggest a good web site for the steam challenged?
Thanks,
Rich
