Shooo, I'm glad the title of this topic did'nt mean we where starting a spin off of the "face behind the name" thread. :eek: :rolleyes: :D .
I can take a post a pic of one but it's been altered from it's 1913 build and missing parts.

Hey maybe you're onto something, remember the old saying, "If I had a dog as ugly as you, I'd shave it's butt and make it walk backwards." Maybe it would be an improvement! :D :D :D

t. I thot you would post your yard caboose...
 
:D :D jon,jon..jon

Interuban, not sure if this is what you want you had in mind but technically it is a prototype. Former GM&O #2831, built in march 1913. Rebuilt sometime in the 40's I think. The double hung windows were the handywork of a former owner:rolleyes:
