    I know Tom, good to fall back on but don't want to be doing it forever if you don't enjoy it.

    I figured you were working but there is no fun working a job you don't like. If you like what you're doing then its not work.

    I was in the industrial part in Cataumet but when I lost 3 men moved the machine shop back to E. Falmouth, My trucks are at another shop we work with in Mashpee.

    I can't do it myself but with a couple of my guys. The only thing I worry about is getting them off the body which can be a touchy situation. A number years back a kid down here had a one ton Ford dump truck and he got the big idea of changing the hydraulic hoses from the pump to the cylinder without blocking the body. I don't need to continue the story.

    Thanks, Is it better to give them the cylinders and let them do it or do it myself once I get the parts, Thanks, Paul

    Hi 84superdog, I can understand lost interest, people wonder why I don't make "stuff" in my spare time in my machine shop. Didn't those Big Boys cost around 250K when they were built? Paul

    What about having a sheet metal shop just bend up some 3/8" X 1" OR 1 1/4" and drill 2 holes in to mount.

    Hi, Any pics of the truck, Thanks, Paul

    The other thing 84superdog, I can't remember what I saw, but did the 2nd and 3rd driver wheels on each of the 4 x 4 arrangement on the Big Boys have no flanges to help take the curves? I knew they did that on a lot of the big east coast engines for the sharp curves out this way. I do have on my to do list, is set up my model train collection, LOL. I have 36 engines, American Flyer 3/16 scale which I think is the most realistic models ever built with the 2 track layout, not 3 like Lionel. These were built by A.C. Gilbert of New Haven, CT.

    Hi 84superdog, I understand, wasn't it Sherman Hill that killed them out to the west coast? Anyone within reasonable driving range of Scranton, PA should at least go see #4012 before it rusts into the ground.
