Brian:

On the way into work today an eighteen wheeler pulling a low slung flat bed passed me.

I caught a glimpse of what appeared be a railroad maintenance car, yellow.

There was a box for a cab with a generous platform behind the cab.

Out front of the cab was just an open area, whatever that machine was intended for the workings must have been beneath that deck.

Considering the height of the machine on the flatbed I presume it had smaller diameter wheels than general commerce rolling stock.

I had an idea for a GTG for Aug.
Aug. 2 Street Diesel Performance Show & Go.(EXP) Drag classes, truck show, burnout contest, bikini contest, live music & more.

Or maybe we could do the drags on Sept 19th
33rd Annual TBG U.S. DIESEL TRUCKIN NATIONALS & MOTORSPORTS SPECTACULAR Presented by Elizabeth Truck Center. Monster Trucks, Jet Cars, Wheelie Cars, Cartoon Characters and more

I am going to do one or the other and if we get a big group together maybe we could get a bus and sit back and relax for the ride.
