The interesting note on this little switcher is that it was originally built for the RF&P in October of 1967, and still around today. Photo taken on Railroad property, with permision.

Plenty of exhaust, especially from PA 19 (second unit). PA 19 was built in May of 1947, starting its career as ATSF 54B, and later, 66L. this unit was rebuilt in 3/75 and its designation changed from PA1 to PA4u. Although slated for scrap, the unit was saved by D&H president Bruce Sterzing who purchased them, displaying them for the first time on May 1, 1973, a celebration of D&H's 150th anniversary. September 23, 1977

Obtained from the Santa Fe in late 1967, ALCO PAs #16, #17, #18, #19 + Ex- New Haven 0783 used for parts, 16-19 were used to upgrade the current power on the Passenger trains between Albany and Montreal, In 1975 they were sent to Morrison-Knudsen for rebuilding to PA-4 specs. After only 3 years in 1978 all 4 PAs were sold to Mexico along with the SD45s, C628s and the U30Cs. As of March 2025, The current state of the PAs are as follows

 

D&H 16 - Undergoing rebuilding in Texas

D&H 17 - as of 04/24 on display at a museum in Mexico.

D&H 18 - Brought back from Mexico and currently on the DL

No EBT Winter Spectacular is complete without snow. It wasn't much, but was fierce while it lasted.

Walmart #1537 1270 York Rd Gettysburg, PA. It occurred to me yesterday that the next picture to be uploaded will be my 19,000th picture on Flickr! I picked this Walmart to celebrate this milestone as it was my first place of employment upon moving to PA in 2005 and it has received a much need remodel. The remodel here is finished and the store looks better than ever! I have more picture of this store set to upload on Sunday!

I think this is the second re-activation in the history of this 19th space invader in Paris and in the world. Better quality than the previous attempt to re-activate this blue on red invader of the very first generation.

The Schweizer 1-26 is a single-seat, mid-wing glider that is popular for casual and non-aerobatic flights, used in civilian and military environments, built by Schweizer Aircraft. The SGS 1-26 is very popular and numerous sailplane in the United States with a very long production run from its first flight in 1956 to circa 1981. Early 1-26s were offered both in kit and pre-assembled form, although this practice was ended with the E model. The 1-26 is used by many soaring clubs in the United States, and is often the first single place glider that a student flies immediately after soloing, often coming from a Schweizer 2-33 two-seat trainer. The 1-26 is supported by an active aircraft type club, the 1-26 Association, which organizes competitions around the one design 1-26 class.

A LITTLE SUPER CUB LORE

Classic PA-18 Super Cubs

 

If the first production Super Cub had been human, it probably would have suffered from a severe identity crisis. It ended up with the model designation PA-18, but could have been a PA-19 . . . and should have been a PA-20. According to Roger Peperell's exhaustive reference work, Piper Aircraft, the convoluted tale unfolded as follows.

 

Early in 1948, Piper assigned the model designation PA-18 to an improved version of the PA-17 Vagabond, which was to be introduced to the marketplace in 1949. A Continental C-90 powered prototype was built and tested, but Piper decided to cancel the program early in 1949.

At the same time the company was developing the PA-19, which was a version of the PA-11 cub Special for the U.S. Army. Only three were built and one of them, N5011H (Ser. No. 19-1), would serve as the certification test bed for the installation of the Continental (1-90-12F; Lycoming 0-235- C1 and O-290-D. The PA-11 airframe was unchanged, except for a revised center section and the use of the more rounded rudder that was first used on the J-4 Cub Coupe. The PA-11, which was an updated J-3, had retained the more angular Cub rudder. (An interesting side note: When Dick Wagner developed his Cuby, Wagabond and 2+2 kits, all were fitted with J-3 rudders. Reason: Dick had purchased all the J-3 inventory left at Piper's old Ponca City, OK plant, which included a barn full of J-3 elevators, stabilizers, gear legs and rudders. Golda and I were there in Lyons. WI to see them shoals after Dick returned home with the first semi load of goodies)

Military orders for the PA-19 that Piper Aircraft hoped for did not immediately materialize, so the company decided to ''civilianize'' the design and market it as the Super Cub. Rather than advancing to the next model designation, which would have been PA-20, Piper chose to go backward and assign the unused PA-18 designation to the Super Cub. Actually, by this time the PA-20 designation had already been assigned to the four-place Pacer, so the only other alternative would have been to jump ahead to PA-21! All this model designation confustion came about because these different airplanes were under development at the same time.

Finally, however, things were sorted out and the Super Cubs went into production - replacing the PA-11 on the production line in November of 1949. The very first Super Cub was N5410H, Ser. No. 18-1 . It is still on the FAA'S books today and was recently restored to flying condition.

Super Cubs were certified and produced by Piper Aircraft with five different engines (plus several dash number variants of those engines).

 

PA-18-95 (ATC #1A2), powered with a Continental C-90 engine. Like the PA-11 from which it was derived, it had no flaps, had a straight elevator (no counterbalancing horns) and one 18 gallon fuel tank in the left wing. Another 18 gallon tank for the right wing was optional. The initial price in 1949 was $5,850. Surprisingly, even though more powerful models were being manufactured, the PA-18-95 continued in production until 1961.

PA-18-105, powered with a Lycoming 0-235-C1. It had a larger horizontal tail, with balanced elevators and flaps (from the PA-20 parts bin). The PA-18-105s were only built from January to October of 1950 when that model was replaced by the PA18-125.

PA-18-125, powered by a Lycoming O-290-D. Oil cooler scoop on top of the cowling.

PA-18-135, Lycoming O-290-D2. Production began in May of 1952. Oil cooler scoop moved to the bottom of the cowling. Two wing tanks standard with this model.

PA-18-150/160, Lycoming 0-320. Production began in October of 1954 and continued until November 22, 1982 when the Super Cub was terminated. Production was resumed at Vero Beach, FL in 1988, however - as a $45.000 completed airplane or a $21,000 kit (minus engine and prop). Production continued until December of 1994 when the last Piper built Super Cub, N41594, rolled off the production line.

 

Along the way a variety of sub models were produced, including PA-18s seaplanes and PA-18A ag planes. A total of 1,493 were built for the Air Force and Army as L-18s and L-21s, and many of those were sent to foreign countries under the Mutual Defense Aid Pact. The military models were ordered and built in blocks of serial numbered right along with the civilian production.

 

In total, Piper Aircraft built 10,326 Super Cubs between 1949 and 1994. Just 44 were built at Vero Beach - all the rest at Lock Haven. The biggest year for Super Cub production was 1953, when 1043 were built.

 

Like the J-3s and PA-11s before them, most Super Cubs were initially used as working airplanes. They served as trainers, dusters and sprayers, banner towers, pipeline and bowerlike patrollers, border patrollers, military liaison aircraft, bush planes and in any other way pilots could use and abuse them. Few aircraft have ever been subjected to more aftermarket modifications than the Super Cub - in fact in their efforts to squeeze out more performance, Alaskan bush pilots have sometimes rendered them virtually unidentifiable as PA-18s.

 

The Super Cub, however, did not die when Piper Aircraft ceased production in 1994. A host of small companies simply tooled up and began building their own versions of the airplane - in kit form to avoid the cost of certification. There are even turboprop versions flying today!

 

All the various models of Super cubs are highly prized today - as evidenced by the prices being asked for them in Trade-A-Plane ads. In a recent issue, for example, a rebuilt, highly modified 1963 model was listed for $159,000! Many continue to be working airplanes, but, increasingly, they are being restored as showplanes by enthusiasts like Ron and Nancy Normark.

One of the very low numbered space invaders coming back to Paris due to a very successful re-activation action of the true fans. Excellent job and hopefully visible for a long time. I was here when the swing bridge was in maintenance and closed for traffic and public. I asked the workers if I could make a close-up of the space invader. Looking weird, I got short access to the closed bridge section.
