When I was little we called them put-put cars. [:p] I know that some of the MOW crews have some still but do the signalmen and others have them still or have HI-Rails pretty much taken their place. I once saw a postcard with a 3-wheeled bike for rails. It was kinda like a go-cart but with only 3 wheels. [/quote] I saw a track checker in a cushman type vehicle - all alone on the Amtrak line near where I observe. Is this like what you are talking about? Moo [/quote] Mookie [:)] It might be. I didn't realize how many companies made speeders until about a month ago. I will find the website and list it here. But there were alot of companies that one time made speeders. Cushman might have been one, I really don't know. If you see it again or already have a pic of it, you might send it to Bergie and see if it can make "Pic Of The Day". I haven't seen them used in years for anything other than MOW. But that may be just in my neck of the woods. I watched a video last week that had a strange one on it. It was the narrow guage steam line of Cumbres and Toltec. Anyway this thing was an open air, (no roof whatsoever) car that would seat 2 people. It didn't look like your normal speeder. [/quote] It was a golf cart, silly! [/quote] Mookie Dearest [:)] Surely you are not saying that instead of working our railroad friends are out playing gold, are you? lol [8D] I wonder if those torpedoes can be used to make sand traps and holes for the balls? OH, now we know why there are water hazzards close to the tracks now. [:0] I think Ed's water hazzard is a little larger than most. [:D] Mookie, I think you have opened a can of worms here. [B)] FOUR [:D]
