MODEL STEAM SHOVELS

As I said, gotta love steam shovels. Here are a couple of
"models" just for fun. I spent many a quarter on the skill
cranes at the local carnivals and fairs when ever I could. I
was going to try to adapt the Buddy L to one of my live steam
trains, but that would require some serious butchering to get
the trucks and couplers right, and scale is just a little off,
so I decided not to go that route. But I may just strap it to a
flat car and go with that, I also have the dredge (clam bucket)
crane. As a 5 year old, a steam shovel was my first Christmas
request. I did get one, but immediately hooked the bucket tooth
into the loop of a rug and tried to pick it up and snapped a
rivet, so that was the end of that.[attachimg=1][attachimg=2]

Obviously I put this thread in the wrong category. Admin feel
free to relocate it if possible.
