Thanks for the link. NS 39 is the old HEP that I was wondering about. The tool car you had is the one I called Sid Bailey's tool car. Junk pile was more like it ( inside ). NS 39 & Sid Bailey both had their quirks. I called him "Pig Pen".

Some excellent footage posted on Youtube by one of the Chasers last Saturday. Those guys are crazy, I wonder how many speeding tickets they get? I esp love the footage at 15:23 with snow coming down. Snow in the South East is like Unicorns, it doesn't matter if it sticks around, just that you got a glimpse of it. *!lol!*
