Lyle,
 They are exactly the same picture, right down to the reflections in the
engine and on the walls around it, if you make it a transparent layer
and put it over the original it lines up perfect.  The ONLY way the ebay
crook got that picture was IF he had his camera in the EXACT same spot
at the exact same time as our member. And there is NO way that happened.
That engine is open on that side. The fence you see only runs in front
of the display. It is (and many others he is selling as well) a blatant
rip off.
