thanks for the correction, I'm uploading the fix now.

my visit was not the best organized;^)  I shortchanged those 3 cars. They 
were displayed oddly I think, so avaoided my eye.

for instance the 959 had its tail stuck in a corner. i would have thought 
the tail was the most distinctive feature

both it and the 980 were in very tight quarters

anyway, I had great fun and a fabulous art mueeum display. If I had gone 
early to the show, I'd have gone back to pick up what I missed in the first 
trip.

BUT, I went the next to last day of the show
