The new breaker facility for Famous Reading Anthracite. Many times smaller than the old St Nick breaker, but then coal isn't as much in demand as it was 70 years ago.

The Breakers is a Vanderbilt mansion located on Ochre Point Avenue, Newport, Rhode Island, United States on the Atlantic Ocean. It is a National Historic Landmark, a contributing property to the Bellevue Avenue Historic District, and is owned and operated by the Preservation Society of Newport County.
The Breakers was built as the Newport summer home of Cornelius Vanderbilt II, a member of the wealthy United States Vanderbilt family. Designed by renowned architect Richard Morris Hunt and with interior decoration by Jules Allard and Sons and Ogden Codman, Jr., the 70-room mansion boasts approximately 65,000 sq ft (6,000 m2). of living space. The home was constructed between 1893 and 1895 at a cost of more than $7 million (approximately $150 million in today's dollars adjusted for inflation). The Ochre Point Avenue entrance is marked by sculpted iron gates and 30-foot (9.1 m) high walkway gates are part of a 12-foot-high limestone and iron fence that borders the property on all but the ocean side. The 250' x 120' dimensions of the five-story mansion are aligned symmetrically around a central Great Hall.

Dismantling The PW Mess & Tool Van. Both the underframe and the body were in very poor condition. The bogies are probably salvageable and once the body has gone a decision can be made regarding the rather moth eaten underframe.
The vehicle was built on a former WDLR D class wagon.

We spent a day in Newport, Rhode Island (my wife's 48th state visited). Our goal was to check out some of the famous mansions - we picked out The Breakers and Marble House. Good choices. We arrived at The Breakers around opening time and had a lot of it to ourselves. Newport was a major resort for the wealthy barons back in the 1900 time frame; they spent their fortunes on enormous houses based on European chateaus. We were able to take self-guided tours at our on pace; we were both amazed by the opulence and decadence of the rooms and furnishings. The Marble House was also fascinating. We needed a break from the fancy houses so we went lighthouse hunting and found a few. We thought about staying another day in Newport to check out some of the other mansions but rain was catching up to us and it was time to move on. Oh well, there is always next time!

The Breakers is the grandest of Newport's summer "cottages" and a symbol of the Vanderbilt family's social and financial preeminence in turn of the century America.
Commodore Cornelius Vanderbilt (1794-1877) established the family fortune in steamships and later in the New York Central Railroad, which was a pivotal development in the industrial growth of the nation during the late 19th century.
The Commodore's grandson, Cornelius Vanderbilt II, became The Breakers dining roomChairman and President of the New York Central Railroad system in 1885, and purchased a wooden house called The Breakers in Newport during that same year. In 1893, he commissioned architect Richard Morris Hunt to design a villa to replace the earlier wood-framed house which was destroyed by fire the previous year. Hunt directed an international team of craftsmen and artisans to create a 70 room Italian Renaissance- style palazzo inspired by the 16th century palaces of Genoa and Turin. Allard and Sons of Paris assisted Hunt with furnishings and fixtures, Austro-American sculptor Karl Bitter designed relief sculpture, and Boston architect Ogden Codman decorated the family quarters.

The view from the top of the St. Nicholas coal breaker in Mahanoy City looking back towards the power house, warming shed, and unloading shed. This is the conveyer which carried coal from the unloading shed up to the top of the breaker where the processing started.

Last month a spent a few days in Newport, Rhode Island and visited two of the mansions built during the Gilded Age. Here are six outside shots from the first one we toured.
"Built for Cornelius Vanderbilt II, The Breakers (1893-1895), is the grandest of Newport's summer “cottages” and a symbol of the Vanderbilt family's social and financial preeminence in turn-of-the-century America. In 1893, Mr. Vanderbilt and his wife Alice commissioned Richard Morris Hunt to design a house that would replace one on the same property that was destroyed by a fire in November of 1892."

Joan and I spent her birthday walking the beach and wandering around town. As you can see, the water was a little choppy.

I guess you could call this a "sight reading" of Joe Murphy's Sunder frame design. I don't use stud.io so I basically eyeballed it and made a different leg design.
