Guys, guys, guys. I'm not quite sure how to take this or what to think but my pictures.... they were meant to be a joke. I wrote the comment and posted the pictures from the standpoint that those were pictures of my equipment on my railroad... in fact, the K-36 is up behind Durango, CO and the power car was photographed mere feet away from the edge of the Grand Canyon in AZ. They do however happen to share the same number, hence my disire to play a prank. Myyyyy, how that backfired.
In all honesty though, I do appreciate the quality feedback.

Smile Hey! You asked for it!

So I suggest you go back up there after hours and CHANGE THE NUMBERS! If they don't understand, then they ran screwy railroads, and they can't take a joke!. Besides their YOURS, right!?

Your wife won't mind either after you get out of jail in a couple years!
