Well, he is certainly testing the old adage that all publicity is good publicity so long as they spell your name correctly. Lord knows how much coverage will be generated if he is given prison time. Sad. Ross Rowland |

Nice to see they used a photo of a traditional North American train for that news article...! The multi-door coaches make me think its an Italian one, though there's nothing really obvious to identify the country. |

Photo is a stock image offered by Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, and others. MarketWatch took the trouble to "paint out" the numbers on the buffer beam that would tell you it's preserved FS (Italian State Railways) 2-6-0 625.100: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FS_Class_625 Twenty-five of the 183 built have been preserved. Yet another reason I consider MarketWatch to be right on par with the Daily Mail and the old Weekly World News for reliability............... |
