That there are people (I never named Rich originally in this post, but you'll see he later quotes this post by saying I did name him, then deleted every post I made pointing out his error) who'd rather not see a Big Boy returned to steam, among supposed train fans, simply staggers the imagination.
I can only assume that some hate Ed SO much that they'd gleefully deny the rest of us the chance of seeing a 4000 under steam, just to prove themselves right in their hate for the guy.
Frankly, I simply do not care what has happened already. He could be 100% guilty of everything that the usual suspects have accused him of. I just want to see 4014 under steam.
How any train fan wouldn't want the same result speaks for some people's downright hysterical hatred for one guy...
