Thanks, Rich. As usual, you provide both good historical information and practical suggestions. I'll write Sunshine about their kit. My impression is they build in small batches and probably don't ha

What a nice surprise to find such interest in this topic. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, many industries (e.g., mines and mills) sponsored their own bands -- both here in the US and abroad. Th

Thank you, Mike! Your explanation of injectors is very clear and helpful. Makes me wonder why any railroad would have chosen the "lifting" type. Maybe it had to do with how different roads ran their

If Russ, Loren and Ed all say the term "blackbird" was not used on the railroad, that's good enough for me. I suppose there's a small chance it was a geographically-restricted local term, but I'm at

Pete may be right about the later date. What makes me suspicious is that if it WAS 1942, that combine would have been just recently rebuilt (and one would think freshly repainted at that time). It lo
