Thanks for posting that!

 

If you guys have anymore shots like this of your own, let us know, we would love to post those additions up.

 

The snow scenes with the '50? Chevy PU and '50? Buick I think are in Utah on the Heber Valley RR (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and feature a small Union Pacific 2-8-0 Consolidation like what used to run past my boyhood home in Nebraska. What I'd give to stage that engine with my '40 or '55 Ford in my home town...

 

I would love to have a copy of these. I have both a model A and a Green 53 Chevy pickup. Not to mention my son is 3 years old and obsessed with trains.

 

From the early 1900's

 

here is my cad next to the daylight limited this summer when it was here in Milwaukee

 

Here's one taken by Chris Casny a few years back...

Coming back to AZ from Pueblo 2 years ago.

 

And why not a plane?

 

cool combination, there is also a very cool video on choppedanddiced from 1905 San Fran. street car ride.

 

Here's all 3

 

i want to fire the steam locomotive ,

 

Some of you guys might recognize this UP "Big Boy" from the swap meet area at the annual L.A. Roadster Show in Pomona

 

I think they are enhanced, photoshopped? Pere Marquette disappeared in 1947. The "Big Boy" was a 4-8-8-4, that photo of a UP 9000 is of the longest rigid wheelbase built, a 4-12-2

Actually, that is not a 'Big Boy'.. Big Boys had 2 sents of 8 articulated drive wheels. This one appears to have 10 drive wheels in line and not articulated. Still, it is huge but, not as large as a real Big Boy.

You're right...just a few steps away is a real "Big Boy"...
I snagged the wrong photo from the file...



This one was hauled to Pomona for display purposes in a "dead tow" over the Cajon P*** when they were deemed as unusable. No "Big Boys" have ever run under it's own power to the Southern California area.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHA Thats FAWESOME!
