Show Me Something -- July 2016
Posted by Guy Papillon on Friday, July 1, 2016 5:11 PM

More than 24 Hours and no reply. So there is a wooden box car being switched at the train to truck transfer facility.

 

To speed things up, show me any box car or Alco locomotive.

A quorum of steam (class H-4, G-9, and C-15a) at the Thurmond, WVa "roundhouse", circa 1949.

How about a coal drag pulled by steam?

Hey all

Too hot here to go out.

This is the busy side of my farm supply business. Storage building, box car storage, and aggreate. On the left is propane and anhydrous amonia.

Lets have some building materials.
