Hi,

Since there has been talk of 494 recently, here she is in 1990. The 3-way tender coupler is obvious.

The motor car was an interesting interruption. I grew up thinking of the motor car as a "jitney". I later heard that a motor car with a hit-and-miss engine was a subset called a "pop car". FWIW.
