(...) The time stamp on their camera image doesn't change either. And it thinks the temperature is 1552 Centigrade. It looks like a neat idea, but not good PR to have a non-functional demo. James (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

A funny thing happened while I was reading this thread. I got a call from the local chapter of the NMRA, the SER-Piedmont Division.
