Early last month I append to notice a sign on a gate "Railway Museum" with a signal outside. I had seen this notice a few times but had payed no heed. Until last week, I called in and got a real surprise, Here,s the retired farmer with his own railway setup! Full working railway with running...

Hmm, that is the most unlike a goat I ever saw.

And a whole lot of fun if that is what you have. Restoring it will be well worth the effort and very rewarding. https://youtu.be/OyxIJUq7rww

I can't wait to see pictures of your acquisition. please post them as soon as you can. M45 is a fire truck.

That truck would be a good restoration project. I bet the engine sounds the nuts!. I like the Holmes gear on the back, makes it look even more business like.

Thanks for that, (that was pretty painless) I always use full text as it takes so little time and effort and makes for an easier read. Keep posting picture of your progress with your truck. You have a great start in that one.

"how to make friends and influence people" Still reckon I would have "humored" them just to get along and prevent future hostilities! Hope the (posting) Truck owner with the hostile HOA gets something sorted out to suit his requirements.

That is a very smart looking M715. Well prepared so enjoy your trip. Post pictures of the event.

The PO of my truck had no experience wrenching so asking him questions and for help is useless for me ? Swyzzlestickz, when posting please don't use "obscure" abbreviations that could leave the uninitiated guessing..And a very Zafy2, nice truck, looks (just) too clean to...

Just curious, have you checked the wattage of the bulbs?

You seem to have a good notion of what to do. It's just common sense really. Anything you to prior to trying to start is is beneficial, Though I have started diesels that have stood longer than that without much initial servicing. And one deuce multifuel we had stood for 4 years started right up...

There you go! some interest aroused, make use of the unit, and just mebb'e an electrical piece (needed) will come your way. Then you will wish you had kept hold of it.

Yes, all very well to say, But as an ordinary chap with an ordinary income, (now well retired!) It takes most of it to support my collection in fuel maintenance repairs and fuel. I can and do try to participate at as many events as I can. But I no way could afford to ship anything to the U.S.A...

Sounds like a fuel problem of, filter/s? lines? pump. There is no picture though you do say "this tank", post a picture of Which tank is "this tank" It might give a clue to someone of knowledge of a particular problem type.

Now that sounds like a really useful piece of kit to have. My 6.5 kva onan just about keeps things alight! when the power fails.

We are all marching on, and working hard to keep up the hobby and our fitness to do so, Thus tonight I (and I'm sure 1000,s of hobbyists) Were (are) somewhat saddend to come across this video on utube..NOW what we gonn'a do to keep fit active and interested, well after this particular "mecca"...

In my humble opinion..it is. But then why would you not wish to enjoy a screaming turbo, free fuel. and quite adequate performance. Had a cummins engine in zill once, didn't rate it all that much (even with an 8 speed gearbox). Reckon a truck without the "whistle" is just..another truck.

A very nice outfit. And what a haul to get it back home. Well done. Fortune favors the ...etc.

Welcom from U.K. That is a nice cluster of trucks. Go for it.

That sounds like it would be a nice truck kept as is. With some refurb and paint?. Nice to drive nice to show, nice to own.
