[SEL] Old trolly car engine

Now that's a pretty kewl looking engine John!!

  I've heard of some people that still use the old rail tracks for fun and 
pleasure.  They're all getting torn up around here and reclaimed..some into 
jogging trails.  We had a chance a couple years ago to get a speeder car and 
a couple rebuilt engines, but the time wasn't right...or the wallet.

  On another note, If any of the list members read this, Corky and I are 
looking for a paint code for antique purple for our steamer.  The Company 
can't help us, but it was the first coat of paint on this engine.  I'll 
cruise the engine pix's I have today and see if I can find something that 
sticks out.

  Any help would be appreciated.

Life is good in Mt.
