I always thought that they were holding out and wouldn't start building better cars UNTIL someone else did first!
LOL

 

Watched that "Beast" take off at Northrop in Hawthone,Ca. in 1947.

Hey, Unkamort. Can you post larger images?
Thanks.

 

OK, back in the game again. Found a motherlode of old photos in the Denver Public Library archive (and that's only scratching the surface; if you're a railfan you can get lost for days!). Here's a bunch that were handpicked, sized and enhanced where needed for your enjoyment.



















More to come.

Still more to come...
