Jan-09-02, 08:05 PM (EST) "McKeen Gas Coach" Maybe some one will take on one of these! Should be a fairly simple project, they were early gas mechanicals, windsplitters, with a sharp prow like a boat. Made in the 1905 to about 1920 period and very cool looking. There is a website about them at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Hills/1444/annarbor.htm I don't have a picture that I own to post.Steve Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Jan-09-02, 09:34 PM (EST) 1. "RE: McKeen Gas Coach" I've seriously thought about it. Our railroad museum (Nevada State) is currently restoring probably the only one left in any condition.http://www.nsrm-friends.org/nsrm44.htmThey're about 5 blocks from my house and so getting reference material couldn't be better. All I need now is some idle time!!!-Verne

Jan-11-02, 08:30 AM (EST) 5. "RE: McKeen Gas Coach" I just wasn't sure about showing pictures from some one else's site. Hope this stirred up some interest! These would look really neat flying down the tracks!Steve Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Jan-11-02, 07:41 PM (EST) 6. "RE: McKeen Gas Coach" Nothing wrong with showing the pics, but that was only for the lazy ones who could not be bothered to check the site. Bet the site got a lot of new traffic from the post, so I guess that makes the owner more than happy! Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
