AC's?
Posted by foxmike58 on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 12:10 AM

I have wondered about the AC's Cab-Forwards, and if any still are in running shape. And if so, where are they? I had a love of the 'Big Boy's" as a kid, and in my teen's was turned onto the Cab-Forwards. Please shoot me a line at foxmike58@hotmail.com if you have any info. I live in Oregon and would love to get up close and personal with one of these massive "Whizzers!"

The only cab-forward left in existence is the last one, SP AC-12 4294.  It is located in Sacramento and is definitely not in operating condition.

The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul
