Seems like there's lots of interest in industrial locomotives on this site, so I thought I would start a new topic that focuses on them.

Vulcan

That Plymouth is the same model we have with no cab in our collection & we have one coming in with a cab this month. Ours are both 36" ga & that one was 36" but pushed in to 24". Model FL or FLH if it was built with a Hercules engine (6 Ton).

The last picture at the Empire mine should be an General Electric open style battery type (6-8ton). The only thing that is throwing us off are the bearing caps which are not tradition G.E. on the axle journals.

My records show that the PA Lumber Museum Brookville Model BMD loco is 15-Ton and originally came from Keystone Tanning & Glue, Wilcox, Pa (later Wilcox Tanning Div.). From 1974 the unit was stored at Kovalchick scrap yard until the PA Lumber Museum picked it up.

Those are some awesome pictures, This thread is a good idea.

I agree that that plymouth is definatly the coolest petro-powered loco... I like the yellow and black greesburg from Seldom scene.... It would be cool to take that GE and make it look like that. The orange one is funny looking with that wheel.

John, whats the story behind the "Pisscutter?" Why's it named that?

Awesome stuff..
