Not going to speculate on what loco motive they might have for being there, but they *do* look well-trained ...

For all of you guys who are railroad junkies as well as tuba fanatics, the locomotive that are posing on and around is a Milwaukee Road, Bipolar, electric locomotive.

I ashamed of you guys. Though the name of the type of locomotive is actually the "Bipolar electric" I expected many more bad puns and comments. Are Jay and Imperialbari the only creative ones among you?

Randy; be careful what you ask for, the answers may be shocking.
I admit that I got a charge out of the last puns.

Wish I could say anode watt would ampen ... certainly not their volt, though. Hope they're headed for ohm.
