Well, Jim,

If you like the F59PHI, you may like this shot of the second unit of the Coaster in San Diego last Wednesday.

Thanks, Bob
How new are the Coaster Units?
I wasn't aware they got them.

Don't know for sure, but my buddies that I was fanning with that day said to be sure to get a pic because they were brand new. There was little dirt on this unit, so I tend to agree.

The Coaster units were built 9/01 and were delivered to them on 10/21. They received two of them 3001, 3002.
