this guy took a standard raleigh chopper and lengthened the rear seat stays and the forks so he could put the back wheel from a raleigh tomahawk in place of the front and then placed a wheel from a raleigh grifter (i think) into the rear. he also extended the handlebars and you can't see a weld join on the bike anywhere. it was great, and he was a really nice guy.
Last year we treated ourselves to a "heli hike". We flew into the middle of the Kaweka and walked back to the hanger at Poronui over the following 6 days.
It took around 15 minutes to cover what would take a determined tramper 2-3 days to walk. Its always a thrill to travel by chopper.

Not a great day out for Locomotive Services Limited's Standard Class 7 70000 "Britannia" after it failed at Carlisle and had to be taken off the return leg of Saphos Trains' "The Fellsman". Reportedly suffering an overheated big end bearing, the Brit required a tow back to base.
LSL's Class 20, 20107 (D8107) on standby / Thunderbird duties at Appleby for the Staycation Express was therefore despatched as 0Z20 to Carlisle.
It then hauled the stricken steamer on a late path (also 0Z20) back to Crewe DMD at a max speed of 50 mph due to Britannia's predicament.
Fortunately the move made better progress than the path suggested and the unusual combination passed through Hartford 138 Early - 10 minutes before the station lights went out.

I wanted to build a simple, childish-shaped troop-transport chopper. I think looks kind of unfinished, but it's a WIP since months, so I decided to upload.
It used to be that a call about a break-in at your place in the middle of the night would have a chopper over your house in minutes. You know a neighborhood is bad when they have painted their street address number on the roof in big white letters like parts of Silverlake and East L.A. Nowadays, a call to LAPD about an armed psycho at your back door might get a response in an hour or so.
