#Fairbanks Morse

[pyro-hairedguy]

I should post more train stuff.

I'm currently working on building a Fairbanks Morse H10-44 by Cary Locomotive Works for the club I'm in. The shell clocks in at 12oz, and should be around a pound by the time I've added the chassis.

The kit was new old stock, unassembled, so I'm putting in the effort to build and solder the hand rails using Tichy wire. It didn't include enough stanchions to complete the wrap around nose hand rail, so I bent one around before learning I could get more.

I'll need about 10 more stanchions to complete the hand rails and add the coupler lift bar. It looks like I can just buy pre bent bars, so I'll get that instead of bending it myself.

Then I just need to finish the end rails and figure out how I want to build the add on rails from the prototype.

This FM is planned to be stationed at our future coal mine, which will be running heavy live loads. The heavy shell will boost the pulling power, as the Walthers model I have was incapable of pulling our existing fake load coal train on flat table.

The real locomotive that inspired the build is the only H10-44 Peabody Coal Company owned. PCCX 274 was purchased from the Frisco, where it was assigned the same number. I plan to paint this unit to match the mixed scheme Peabody gave 274 during their ownership, then patch cab numbers, and possibly hood lettering, using the club's shade of blue as backing. It will be as though our railroad purchased it from Peabody after the 70s.

It's going to be a real ugly duckling, but it'll pull a house down and put history into the scenes on the layout, while also calling out to my contribution and choice of railroad.

1957 Fairbanks Morse Lawnmower

[collinthenychudson]

It’s a lazy Summer day as an A-B-A Set of Milwaukee Road Erie-Built diesels lead train No. 15, the Westbound Olympian Hiawatha, to Seattle, Washington. The train is making its way through Montana along the St. Regis River and a ranch where a group of horses munch on the grass and watch the train thunder by.

FAIRBANKS-MORSE by Roger Bee Via Flickr: As the Minnesota state capitol peeks around a code line pole, Milwaukee Road 548 trundles along with a cut of grain hoppers at Daytons Bluff in St. Paul on 09-23-1972. Virtually everything in this image except the bluffs and trackage is gone today including the code pole lines and tower on the right. Warner Road to the left has been rebuilt and our Fairbanks-Morse H16-66 is now bits of scrap metal after being retired during December of 1973.

From the Milwaukee Anti-War Committee:

On February 20th, the newly formed Wisconsin Defense Industry Council (WDIC) will be holding a summit at the Fairbanks Morse Defense headquarters in Beloit, WI. There, the council will be officially launched. Created by the Wisconsin Manufacturers & Commerce (WMC) and the Milwaukee Association of Commerce (MMAC), the WDIC is made up of defense industry manufacturers and banks to focus on ‘supply chain issues’ and ‘workforce shortages’ for weapons manufacturing in Wisconsin. To add to the insult from this newly formed legion of war profiteers, the keynote speaker for the summit is none other than Senator Tammy Baldwin!

We say NO to the WDIC! The people of Wisconsin deserve money for jobs and education that is NOT tied to war and occupation! Shame on Tammy Baldwin! Join us on February 20th at Fairbanks Morse Defense as we stand against the WDIC and let these warmongerers know they are not welcome!

"WHAT IS WEIGHT OF TROTZKY, PARK BEAR?" Vancouver Sun. May 31, 1934. Page 3. --- GUESSERS CLAIM HE'S LARGEST IN CAPTIVITY --- How big is Trotzy, the Russian bear in Stanley Park? That's a question that has caused Vancouver Park Commissioners to toss fitfully in their sleep, because the annual crop of questions about Trotzky's weight and dimensions is now being harvested.

Is Trotzky the biggest captive bear in the world? How long is he from stem to gudgeon, or whatever it is they measure bears from and to? What does he heft, avoir-dupois, troy, or what is it they use to gauge the bulk of bears? The Park Commissioners don't know, and their trusty henchmen, including C. R. Green, zoo manager, don't know either.

If there were any semblance of agreement among Vancouver's amateur and professional bear weight guessers there might be established what could be offhandedly referred to as a consensus of opinion on Trotzky's weight. But what can you do when the guesses start at, say, 500 pounds and end up at somewhere around a ton?

And the settlement of the arguments about Trotzky's weight seems to have reached what writers are fond of calling an impasse. It would appear that there is no way to weigh him owing to his habit of taking apart anything that he can reach, from peanuts to, presumably, a set of scales.

Of Trotzky it may be truly said that in his bearish playfulness he doesn't know his own strength, and on top of that he has a disposition like a bear named Trotzky would naturally have.

Gentlemen who have weighed everything from a gnat's metabolism to the sun - including Mr. Fairbanks-Morse himself - have come from afar, taken one look at Trotzky and have gone home talking to themselves.

In the meantime the more civic-spirit-Conscious of Vancouver's citizenry are claiming that Trotzky is the world's champ among captive bears. A few admit that a polar bear or two in famous zoos are bigger, but all unite in acclaiming him as the titleholder among brunette bears. And who can say them nay until some lad comes forward with his certified weight and a better story?

Great Old FAIRBANKS MORSE Engines Cold Start and Sound Review 6

[coltermartinez]

Research Nester published a report titled “Gas Engine Market: Global Demand Analysis & Opportunity Outlook 2035” which delivers detailed overview of the global gas engine market in terms of market segmentation by gas type, application, end-user, and by region.

Further, for the in-depth analysis, the report encompasses the industry growth indicators, restraints, supply and demand risk, along with detailed discussion on current and future market trends that are associated with the growth of the market.

The global gas engine market is anticipated to attain a CAGR of ~4% over the forecast period, i.e., 2023 – 2035. The market is segmented on the basis of gas type into natural gas, gasoline, landfill gas, and others. Among these, the natural gas segment is anticipated to hold the largest market share over the forecast period owing to the diverse application of natural gas, such as, base load power generation and combined heat and power applications. Moreover, it is cheaper, and readily available, which is further expected to boost the market growth.

The global gas engine market is projected to witness growth on the back of increasing demand for gas engines for heavy-duty vehicles, as it supports continuous running at full load for long periods in a go. The increasing depletion of fossil fuels, along with rising demand of automobiles, are another major factor projected to boost the market growth. Moreover, government regulations to curb vehicular pollution, is further projected to fuel the market growth.

On the basis of regional analysis, the global gas engine market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region. The market in the North America region is anticipated to gain notable market share throughout the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of hydropower in the region. Moreover, the increasing private investment in hydropower, along with higher education awareness in the population.  Request Report Sample@ https://www.researchnester.com/sample-request-3680
