Well, I got my degree in Chemical Engineering from LSU and I work in Industrial Engineering for UPS. So you can count me on that list.

BS in Aerospace, now I'm an attorney. I Fortunately we defend auto manufacturers, so I work every day with automotive engineers. Does that count?

Gene, i have been doing this for Disney for 28 yrs now! everything from working on guests cars to building roller coasters! practical experience sure goes a long way!

Glengages , here in orlando we have a lot of unusual motive power to film. AC powered GE's from CSX (6000hp) to BNSF and some Union Pacific. see all kinds of lease/loan power. plus have a small short line that runs a few old GP's. ever seen a GP35?

BSEE LSU

I'm waiting for an automotive engineer to step forward and settle the hemi vs. quench head debate.

Not often, altho NS seems to shuttle some od stuff thru here.....

In the last few months, I'll see a BNSF pumpkin oncea month:
yesterday, I saw a pumpkin AND a war-bonnet

NS runs 95% of their-own "Black Nag/Horse-Head" GE -9s on the old Pittsburgh Division:
a 'Desert-Storm' version (tan primer) is cause for celebration.....

Wow - lots of engineer types. BSEE from University of Hawaii here - research and development for US Navy (mostly sonar). 79-C3 and 98-C5. Got the 79 for a project - and it sure is....but I love it. C5 drives like a charm, lots of power and never HAVE to work on it.

Default I attended a compressor conference at Purdue in 1972

I worked for a compressor and pump manufacturer at the time. I still have the Purdue beer mug I bought.

Refrigeration Service Engineer. It's my job to make the systems work that the manufacturer's engineers screwed up.

Remember, arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in the mud. After a while you realize the pig likes it.
