Apologies for warping ç—´, but could the screw-ons be 'finders keepers' without unseemly theft of a 'valuable resource'? It's pretty common that stuff can be bought for ~1/2 or less of what would be paid to haul it off. Some big companies are glad to have you ask.

btw, all this time, thanks to ArlyA and Moss for bringing this non-tractor 'candy' of a thread to full bloom. Y'don't learn hen s__ watchin' movies!!

The action is here, Gents, .. and maybe now with less f__ly politics by closeted "chicken-guts & co" armchair hobbyists. (no names, it's 'pages of' and heretofore irrelevant)

Just :cool2:, you guys !!!

"Real Men Love Trains!" Give them the respect they deserve for why they do. Men like them built what we take for granted.

Railroads built this Country across miles of marginal lands to connect the fruitful from Sea to Shining Sea. Let's not forget what 'Made America Great' in the first place. Not ownership, but teamwork. Thank a Teacher, and thank a Railroad Worker. We'd be __ without them.

Steam power fascinates me. Somewhat off topic but how about steam tractors? Super torque & weight vs tons of horsepower!
