The Home Machinist!

Thought I would post over here as a follow up to the posting on DLS my 2.5 inch 2 axle switcher and why it is for sale. Basically I am finding it is just to big for this 74 year old guy to handle. Rig is approximately 40 inches long, 28 inches high and the bed and end caps are 1 inch steel. Using a 5.5 Honda engine and Eaton hydraulic transmission. This is a smooth runner and will pull a string of cars. Weight is approximately 550 to 600 pounds.

Built by Vance Nickerson of Gladewater Texas. I would like to have it picked up here in the North West DFW area. Questions? email me at wa6mdi (at) yahoo.com

Thanks

Dick
