If you like. Profiling is used to decide what is right and what looks right. When one of my good friends and co-workers walked into a Texas bar with me and said 'So how are you all doing?' he was immediately profiled as a Bastan Yankee. His being in a suit and my being in boots and jeans didn't exactly help him. Yep, that's profiling.
There was never a lot of UP or SP traffic in central PA in the 50's. And while I would love a big boy, it would sure look stupid on my dual gauge interchange track. Growing up near a Pennsy line I dont recall ever seeing anything but PRR, NYC, maybe a Lehigh Valley or one of the local short lines but never anything from west of the Mississippi, let alone CA. Kind of like running an EBT engine on the D&RGW. Even my warped imagination can't get around those. C Carey Probst Member, M.I.T.
