Ok You WIN!! BADDEST tOY..
« on: April 08, 2008, 08:44:12 PM »
Went to see a guy today, to see if he had some work for me..

 Went in his yard, he collects stream tractors, Steam shovel, stationary engines,, that sort of thing..

 and there it was.... :o

 a freaking Train. :o.. well a locomotive!! ???

 as the mechanic pointed out it was standard guage.. not narrow.. full size!

  Steam loco, ButlerI think.. maybe 1911.


 okay you win!!

The cab looks similar, But there is  2 or 3 or so of those belled stacks like that one has in the middle.

smaller wheels, it was used as a loco for a Lumber Company in WA state in the 20,s & 30,s I think..
