I think, Steve, excellent question. Our strategies, I’ve said, has now -- now that we have a strong hold on the domestic market things are improving. We feel like we can’t check the box on that. We are -- have a core business in North America, but things are improving very nicely, and we’ve achieved most of our mission there. And number two, expanding internationally. So, we have added the leg of growth at scale and aggressive building for the last year our count of pipeline that includes going down far below middle-management and development programs, recruitment, and so on. In short, we have to grow to afford to do that for the future of the Company, and we believe we can achieve scale in our domestic business and in our international business, and we have active transactions that we are pursuing in both of those areas, but probably focusing on our core North American markets more proportionately in that regard. So, we are looking at opportunities for growth in our space, in the areas which we have talent one of those areas, our core businesses, our manufacturing, engineering, equipment design, rail, freight car design and leasing. We also have very active wheels and parts business and we continue to be dedicated to the repair business, addressing however, that we must be profitable in that business, even though -- even when we have negative results, it still contributes to our integrated model. So setting aside repair business where we're having headwinds, we are likely to increase our scale and one of the primary categories manufacturing engineering or our wheels and parts businesses along with leasing.
