Re: Hobo Jungle
Murph man, some have little propane gas heaters in them and some don't. The ones that don't have heaters they just wrap up in a heavy wool blanket to keep warm. And if ya got the lady ridin' with ya well hell...........ya don't need no heater. I'll let ya figure that one out..........................

But their legs, below the knees, look so thin and unprotected.
Also, how do we know they like it?
Re: Hobo Jungle
Murph,
God designed horses for sweltering hot and freezing cold grass lands. They sweat like we do to keep cool and have horse hide and fur to keep warm. The design seems to work quite well.
I miss global warming... can hardly wait for Spring when it returns. I am not made with horse hide and fur.

Re: Hobo Jungle
Aaaaah, is that engine fa' reeeeaaaal, or is it the result of a certain guy's clever li'l digits workin' at photo-shoppin' ? Eh? Huh? (I'm still wondering about that Amish-Hummer oddity, ya' see. Eh?)

Great pictures as always! Beers are on me tonight. No reason just feeling cybernetically generous.

Re: Hobo Jungle
Yes they have there own Thomas and its a Porter 0-6-0 that they built at their own shop. They also send it out to other railroads that wish to sponsor a "Day out with Thomas". I think they have a gold mine there too.
