Jim-Now, I know you're from California, which makes it all the more puzzling... why do the engines have the long hood designated as forward?? (If you were from the southeast, I'd understand perfectly.)-Dave

Um, well it's a long story. Basically, if you are very very observent you will notice that the long and short hood sometimes flip-flop when going between maps. This has to do with the front & rear getting mixed up after numerous couplings & re-couplings and the way the train is written to file. It's another one of those bugs I can live with, since I don't really care which side is the front or not. I know it would be better to fix this, but it is really complicated and I basically threw my hands in the air and gave up on it.Jim

Hmm... sounds like my experience with MA223, "Differential Equations & Linear Algebra"! (And I guess I'm not observant enough.)-Dave
