    Yes, they were still building coal-fired steam locomotives at the Datong locomotive works into the late 1980s. We built our last one in England in 1960.

    No, you're sadly mistaken. North Korean artillery is as over-rated as the Iraqi Republican Guard was.

    Its not overrated

    Losers often begin a battle by underestimating their enemy

    Right....

    The failure of so many rounds to reach the island and a dud rate of roughly a quarter of those that did suggest issues of quality control in manufacture and/or poorly controlled storage, as well as the potential for there to have been issues in the fire direction or on the gunline.

    A 25% detonation failure rate is hardly "excellent".
