Anis at Tenavintage.com can supply nice used mudflaps and bracket for the S90, I bought one from him for my S90.  Not sure if they can get new mudflaps, but worth exploring ...best part, price was reasonable, just shipping takes a while. Want his email address?

I'm covered David. Thanks.

Was thinking if it were the same part for the 160...

I would agree the parts are a little on the high side. I have ordered from them several times. Heavy duty stuff and it fits.

They also sell the front foot rest rubber. Another hard to find part. Yeah, you can buy overseas but if it doesn't fit then you have wasted money. This happened several times on the Dream build. Do not buy the exhaust pipes. Mine would not fit properly and the chrome work is poor.

If anyone is building a 305 I'll make you a deal on them.

No mas.

The 305 pipes will fit the CA95 but might flow a little too much. Mine are rough, with right side chrome completely flaked off. Heck my whole CA95 is rough but I only paid $300 for it.

You heading north to Corky's to pick up your treasures or going to wait it out? Heat should be easing very soon with September here...
You know if you paint that second one blue and build it up you will want to keep it and then have two S90s. The issue with one boosting the HP to 16 is then stopping with the small drum brakes. Would be a hoot though.

Nothing planned at this time. I might just flip the S90 bikes before making the trip down.

[Stev-o]

No rain yet?

[toytuff]

Last I looked .60 of an inch. 70% chance today.

We made homemade orange coffee cake with fresh coffee. Invited the neighbors over, sat on the patio and watched the rain.

Good times.

[RAFster122s]

Orange coffee cake is good, haven't had that in a long time.
Cooler here today at 81F and 30% humidity at 4pm.

Wow, would be concerned even crossing a bridge with that much water and dirt flowing under it, for the reasons the train got stuck...
Are the rains done for a while or continuing?

Last I checked more to come from another storm out of Texas.

Believe it or not I have seen washes higher then the video. It's a helpless feeling to say the least. If that's the bridge I think it is (MP562.5) there "was" two large steel girders. Gone! This bridge was washed out many, many years ago also.

The West Corridor route is at a standstill. The RR is basically shut down. (article) They run anywhere from 85 to 95 trains a day out of and into the Los Angles Ports and other areas.

The first bridge picture was in fact West of Needles. This is a picture of the underpass at Needles.
