Harry Edmunds General Interesting shot Marty. I thought the speeder was long gone from today's railroads. I guess I learn something new every day. Are those white boxes on the front of the units A/C cooling for the crew? If so, that's pretty "cool". 7/4/2014 11:57:17 AM
Marty Pfohl General Thanks Harry..I think, with some rare or specific exemtions, yes, the speeder is pretty much gone from today's action. I did venture to say the first 2 vehicles are speeders as they look devoid of maintenece equiptment in this view. Since, yes, they have AC units, I would also say the cabs are adequately suited for all weather kind of operation. 7/4/2014 1:52:49 PM
Tomy Boy General These would be Nordo Spike pullers or Anchor applicators, no speeders. Nordco's been really good adout adding climate controlled cabs to their equipment. Here's their website http://www.nordco.com/Nordco.htm 8/12/2015 11:31:12 AM
