ATCA Keystone Chapter Show - July 27 & 28, 2013
farmer52 replied to farmer52's topic in Truck Shows and Events
Gave my MH a sponge bath this morning (actually 409 and paper towels). Tim/Ben...you guys need to blast over to Lakemont with your IH and make some noise. -
Calling Tim and Ben, Your names are on this one.
-
Happy Birthday!
-
Hmmm, never heard of a Zette...whatever. BMT is a wealth of knowledge (most of it is informative, some entertaining, and some worthless).
-
Are you talking about General Motors or Government Motors?
-
Nice array of pics. Thanks! I am guessing the loader is a Michigan.
-
Thanks for the info. Steam power has always intrigued me...locos, tractors, and stationary. I don't mean to hijack this thread but the Altoona Railroaders Museum is restoring a PRR loco K-45 #1361 that was manufactured at the Juniata (pronounted as june...iata) Shops. The loco used to sit at the Horseshoe Curve. Restoration is to be completed this year (been delayed many times). I can't wait to see and hear it in operation. If anyone is in the Altoona area, plan to visit the museum and Horseshoe Curve. http://www.railroadcity.com/

I think they copied that idea from Dodge Ram.

U model Update:

Vinny, How about a video of a startup with the bucket on the stack. I want to see how high it blows. -
I did not take it as an insult. I was just stating the "good old days" of "dreaming" are gone. You are right....shitholders. Oh, and let's not forget the EPA and the government/regs.

Being a retired engineer it is my humble opinion the days of "dreaming" are gone. If a project does not have a "payback" or "commercial viability" it does not get worked on. If "management" does not approve a project, it gets put in the dumper. At most companies, there was a "skunk works" to do "what if" stuff. Now it is all about pleasing the "stakeholders/investors".

ATCA Keystone Chapter Show - July 27 & 28, 2013
farmer52 replied to farmer52's topic in Truck Shows and Events
Anyone planning to attend this show? The forecast is "isolated thunderstorms" on Saturday and "scattered thunderstorms" on Sunday. Temps both days in the upper 70s. The show grounds is grass and has a few wet spots. I plan to be there most of the day on Saturday (family picnic at 1p) and most of Sunday. Mrs. Farmer will be in attendence for a few hours on Saturday morning (that should draw a crowd). Hope to see some BMT members attend. BMT photo at noon Saturday. -
Welcome! Vinny is the resident U model extraordinaire.

The Top 5 Reasons Why You Should NOT Get A Facebook
farmer52 replied to JumperAndSon's topic in Odds and Ends
Thanks for posting Ben. Facebook is a complete waste of time in my opinion. I am still trying to decide if Linkedin is worth my time. -
At least it is not a Mack.
-
Road trip Larry? Offer him less since the "dogs" are pointing the wrong direction.
-
As was mentioned previously....we like pics!!
-
Welcome fellow Buckeye to BMT.

I was able to get a print of the front shock used on my MH. The print listed the Monroe part number so I ordered it from a parts warehouse at a lower price than Mack wanted for the same part.
