happy Truck Thursday! This is another beauty that was on display at Octoberfest in Mount. Angel, Oregon.
BNSF's 1st Watson, Y-WAT1011-12A, creeps down the Harbor Sub in Redondo Beach. On the left is LA Metro's Green Line (since renamed the K Line) which ends at a stub here. The 1st Watson will pause here behind the Redondo Beach Costco, perhaps for a chicken bake and/or a double chunk chocolate cookie.
The Bessemer & Lake Erie dieselized its road power with 28 F7A’s, 26 F7B’s, and a variety of six-axle power. The six-axle power won favor, and no more four-axle road power was ever added to the roster. By the 1980’s, all mainline units were various vintages of EMD SD’s, but ten A-units and a handful of B-units remained for two specialized assignments.
The P&C Dock operation at the B&LE’s northern terminus in Conneaut, Ohio required a small fleet of the cab units to switch cars within their fences. Additionally, the Western Allegheny branch from Queen Junction to Kaylor, Pennsylvania, purchased from the PRR, could not accommodate six-axle locomotives, making the F7’s mandatory power for the branch.
Here the crew has gone on duty at Kaylor at 4:00, and has taken a pair of A-units, including one of the yellow-painted Conneaut Docks units, and is picking up cars at Blacksburg, just west of Kaylor.
Coincidentally, these are the two units that have recently found a new home on the Reading & Northern.

The world’s fastest VW pickup… Oklahoma Willy is a Rolls Royce Viper 535 jet aircraft engine mounted on a 1958 Volkswagen Type II flatbed pickup truck. The engine came out of a BAC 167 Strikemaster, which served in the Middle East with the Oman Air Force, and the pickup spent most of its life carting straw on a farm in Oklahoma. The truck was imported into the UK in early 2013.
Oklahoma Willy was on display at Sywell Classic on 25th September 2022.

Looking a little ditched in a small village in rural Portugal. I'll have to revisit sometime as there's some more gold left to discover nearby.
