I prefer the visibles, but those clockface pumps are neat too. I have learned the Bennett pump I am planning first came out around 1939. Just in time for gas rationing!

The Leaning Tower of Fresno??

Hello,

what do you think of this combination of old and new.
There is an old forge which has been converted into a fish snack.

Nice little building. A vast improvement over the usual fast-food structures.

After following Georges (Bill76) build of a manure spreader, thought these photos would be appropriate.

That radiator is from a Malone & Malone power plant used in the oil industry

The Leaning Tower of Fresno?

No, not enough graffiti nor dirty diapers lying around to be Fresno...

Well I'm relieved to see the builder was at least safety conscious enough to put in seatbelts...

Have a look here Gil: http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/hhh.pa3754.photos.362164p/?co=hh and here: http://www.loc.gov/pictures/search/?q=Drawing:%20md1890&fi=number&op=PHRASE&va=exact&co=hh&st=gallery&sg=true. Not exactly the same but may provide some valuable info. There are also several other railway bridges in the HABS/HAER collection... worth doing a search.

That manure spreader car is cool. Kind of "farmpunk".
