Thanks Tom, sorry bout back surgery hope it went well.
Get ready I was told it runs 80 mph down the open track, I was fortunte enuff to get to see it twice as its on a 18 hr lay over here and if i didn;t have a 8 am eye appt I would be there to see it off on its next leg of the journey.

Fortunately, I have 2 spots that I have that are my favorite that I use depending on what time of day it runs. I have shot it, and the 3985 many times. This will be the first time using my new camera; that is, if my back allows me to.

I'm green. Those wonderful old, slow machines. I wish I had some around here.
