Nope, not yet.
I've heard that Doyle has fired up the motor, but a lot of things aren't connected. It can't move under its own power, yet. Like many other train fans, I'm looking forward to the day when I can see this thing moving under its own power.
Brian: Thank you for all your photos. The volume and variety of train related photos you have posted can't be matched. The time and effort you put into giving us a glimpse of railroadiana and train photos is incredible. If someone hasn't seen a photo of their favorite railroad aspect, they simply haven't been paying attention. Thank you. TW

Thank you for your kind words, Ted . I really enjoy looking at pretty much anything train related, and like to share the many different things that I run across while looking. Brian

Brian,
I agree with Ted, that your really do give a cross section of trains, model, prototype, and railroadiana! I hit "like' on a lot of them, but I want to give you credit for sharing so very much! Thank you!!

Clem and Brian, So I can see I am missing out living over here in Central Western Pennsylvania! 
I'm glad we are on this Forum! 
Not train related, but we had THREE deer in the back yard when I got home tonight!

Great photos, great layout!

Boy, that brings back chilling memories. I rode in HETs (top photo) often on active duty and had a very small hand in the development of the Stryker vehicles, as I was in what eventually became the first Stryker Brigade in the Army, during a transition from heavy mech. I was involved in some of the tests where we picked the interim vehicle before the Stryker design was done, and our experiments had influence over the design to a degree of the vehicle you see on the yellow flats above.

The upper and lower photos, I've seen many times. The center one, I hadn't seen that in a long time. I can't tell the year on the carrier's license plate and the details aren't crisp enough to tell if these jeeps are going to surplus or simply being delivered somewhere without a railhead, or delivered piecemeal.

Man-o-man that looks dangerous, almost silly. What could have been the possible purpose of such a stunt?

P.S. If we modeled that on a layout, most folks, including myself, would say that it was too fantastical and unrealistic. Right,. folks?
