Please tell me those are some sort of air conditioning device and not propane tanks above the cab doors!

I was wondering about those things too.  Then there are jack stands extended onto the track on the front.  :|
Obviously a failed experiment...

That looks like a PRR depot.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Here are pictures and a video of the Micheline train.

Interesting! Doesn't (or didn't) the Paris Metro run on a version of a rubber-tired flanged wheel? The French preoccupation with cushy suspension systems - think old Citroens - is fascinating and has generated quite a bit of innovation... and head-scratching, too.

Michelin made a good decision to stick to tires and travel guides.  They did not exhibit much design flair for trains.

Working on some gondola covers.
Just a test to see if I could vacuum form some.
First test looks promising.
Next up refine the plug.

According to the interweb Akron Union station was PRR Erie and B&O.
