I can't see the latest photos. Roo.
GRJ & Yardmaster, neither your posts or GRJ's reposts of the pics are showing here. Wonder why the pics show up for GRJ and others are not seeing them? Interesting problem here, it's usually all or none? I'm using Chrome, but Edge doesn't work either.
Only pics of Yardmaster's I can see are the ones Franktrain posted from the links in Yardmaster's original post.
Look again, I downloaded them and then uploaded them directly, that works for all my other pictures.
GRJ, I can now see yours after you reposted them.
They look nice too, good job on the re-hab Yardmaster!
Thanks John, can see them now.
Mark, that is a nice full-on restoration.
Mark great work.
GRJ thanks for downloading the photos. Roo.
Thanks GRJ for reposting the pictures. I'll figure this out sooner or later.
Thanks for the comments. Just something different and fun. Its one of those things thats comes along once in a lifetime, so I jumped at it!
Polish the cab 😎
Well its been awhile, longtime since I posted an update on the progress of my restoration of my speeder.
The engine and transmission have been rebuilt, the body painted and mostly reassmebled at this time. The motor runs like a charm! Have to get the doors installed and decals added.
It will be next spring by the time it hits the rails, but the wait will sure be worth it!
What a beautiful restoration! Congratulations!
I am curious about the purpose of the small rails/rods on the front and rear - a place for crew to climb onto the speeder?
Great job. Looks brand new!
Moonman, the small rails/rods on the front and rear are there to push or pull the car into place onto the track from the trackside shed. Nowadays they are used for loading and unloading the car from your trailer or for help turning your car for a return trip on an excursion.
Black rods on front and rear look like exterior, slow speed, small item "bumper" protection. Certainly not much help in any real collision.

Are you sure that's the same speeder? That looks brand new!
Only one question, where the air conditioning unit?
The upper black rods are the handles and lower longer ones are the "bumpers".
As for the a/c unit, it will be a 2/20 sized unit.
2 doors opened at 20 mph!
Mark,
Very cool. I guess you were not able to salvage the Milwaukee Road logo/mask it off when repainting?
