    Great photo, Bill!!! I've been looking for a photo of a caboose that is unique for a undecorated caboose that I have. Your photo is perfect for the project. The windows are different but "Rule 1" will take care of that.

    Thanks for sharing.

    William,
    What about that crane in the background? The boom looks similar to the Walthers crane. Wish I could see that crane. :)

    Bill -
    Fabulous! Keep them coming, please!

    Tom, I'd guess it's 99025 - the derrick assigned to Memphis per Dr. Mike Condren's notes, but that's just a guess:

    Mike's photos don't include 99025, but I'd suspect it's very similar to 99021 and 99022 which are included.

    Karl, thanks for the confirmation; that provides the missing link. Joe, I'm not sure what's up with the links. I'm able to access the links via multiple machines at two different locations?

    Best Regards,

    Chris,

    Well, if that don't beat...I can't access them now, either. I think I was accessing it today because it was cached? Can't get any of his other pages/links to work. Maybe this weekend I can figure it out.

    Best Regards,

    The boom , which appears behind the caboose does not belong to the Memphis wrecker. It appears to belong to one of the +/- 25 ton Brownhoists.

    William ... Two very nice sharp, clear photos!
    Thanks ...
     
  20. Bill, were those used mainly just for rerailing after a wreck? Did they have any type of outriggers?
    Any yellow truck pics in your stash?
