Am I wrong in taking a deep breath when a Union Pacific Big Boy is referred to as "an antique steam engine"? I can think of a hundred steam locomotives that qualify as genuine antiques, but I foind it difficult to include the Big Boy fleet in that description. -RDG |

Hey, a car that old is an antique, right? I went into an antique store the other day and found a landing craft metal toy like I had at age 8. That's not older than 25 years old, so yes, I guess we'd have to call a 4000 an "antique." |
