Misplaced Pages

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Tide rolls (talk | contribs) at 20:29, 29 April 2009 (Reverted edits by 217.146.216.194 to last revision by Wuhwuzdat (HG)). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Wuhwuzdat is taking a short wikibreak from daily vandalism/new page patrol (unless the vandalism shows on my watchlist or I'm really bored), and will be back when vandals are no longer coddled by misguided admins

This user watches over Misplaced Pages with the help of Twinkle!

Ok, it's time to fix that red link with my username on it....

Location: Northwest suburbs of Chicago, Illinois (That's correct, Illinois, The state where the recently impeached former governors hair looks like a Muskrat nesting on top of his head!!))
Occupation: temporarily unemployed CNC machinist.

Interests: Railroads, Aviation, Computers, Photography and just how things work in general.
Member of/volunteer at the Illinois Railway Museum since September, 1986, most of that time in the Internal Combustion (Diesel) Dept., I try to be unbiased when I write or edit about this or related subjects, but, we do tend to write about what we know, don't we?

A special interest of mine is industrial locomotives (critters), along with unusual or obscure locomotive types, such as the UP Gas Turbines, the Krauss Maffei Diesel-Hydraulics, and the MLW LRCs.

I've been known to do some "horrible" things to computerized locomotive drawings, for examples, please see my homepage: http://www.wideopenwest.com/~cbq9911

Have a good one!
