Way cool ..to be shared. Makes a PRR T-1 look small.

Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.

When I was four, I was fascinated by the tone arm on my dad's phonograph that went by and forth as records dropped. I jumped right in and pulled the arm off to examine it..closer..er..I have as many flops as I do successes..that was the first flop. some of them are pretty humorous  They all seem oh so simple at first..that dang modification of the Paya streetcar ..I admire the old heads that had to make do with DIY rather than buying stuff out of a box. Nobody has the time to do this anymore, or so it seems, so when I see a good example..like this one..I get the dangerous idea..oh, I can do that! Sometimes I do and sometimes the end product is unidentifiable Laugh
