Remarks & Notes

While visiting the W&W engine facility and yard, a local resident named Jerry drove by with his A class hot rod and generously agreed to let me take a shot. Note the tank on the front, which I am told is not uncommon for "altered" hot rods used for racing. PS: I am told the car is a 1940 Willys coupe and has an L88-427/440hp engine.

The locomotive can't compete for uniqueness but is a GP-9 rebuild, likely done at Paducah.

NOTE: car and photographer are on a public highway that crosses the middle of the yard.
