<p>Erie, to answer some of your questions;</p><p>As far as I know, The 56 is the only Baldwin Diesel in LA county, but you may want to check the Baldwin Diesel Zone to be sure. What a blast it is to operate this unit.</p><p>The speeder, came to us from the US Navy, it was built by Fairmont in 1987, and is powered by a 1974 Pinto engine. It's pretty fun to drive.</p><p>Our EMD model 40 is a really nice engine, donated in 1988 by Mcdonnell Douglas, in Torrance where it worked alongside the crane and flatcar. which were donated later in 1998 by Boeing Aircraft.</p><p>Speaking of our Alco crane, if you look more closely you may realize it's Actually an American crane, model 508cd, serial 1887. Built in 1943 for the war department.</p><p> -John</p>
