The page looks great! I like the Milwaukee RR "like" LOGO. We (PNLTC) have
been looking for help in the logo department forever. None of us are graphic
artists. I know my way around Photoshop and other graphics apps but the eye is
more important than the mouse.

I have a couple of comments (if I may be so bold). If each box car had the
lable under the car then the user would know where to go straight away. Also
the use of color is a big cue in navigation. Perhaps a different color for
each box car. Those train graphics are really nice.

We all can't wait to see more pictures. And the new modules.
