Well having replaced all the bulbs in my car helps and having a job as a parts person at Advance Auto doesn't hurt either. It also helps to have all the manuals handy.

The 194 doesn't illuminate the controls very well, as I'm sure you already know. I replaced with xenon high-intensity bulbs from McEwen Motor Sports, and though there is certainly an improvement, that improvement isn't overwhelming.

If a train leaves Chicago, traveling east at 40 MPH, and a second train leaves New York, traveling west at 45 MPH, where will the two trains derail (presuming they are both Amtrak)?
