I just read this thread....lol.

I used to run trains from Binghamton, NY down to Hoboken,NJ.

I could of had you drop it off at the Middeltown Metro North station and had a train bring it home to me...lol.



Ottisville, Campbell Hall, Tuxedo, Salisbury-Cornwall, Suffern, ......Jesus, I haven't thought about all them stops in a few years.....LOL.


Did you have a pic of the bar anyway?
Thanks.

 

I'd like to see some pics off the roll bar also. I've been debating. I like having my toolbox now, and would really like to get my hands on one of thsoe BackRacks. I like the look of em. BTW - Dieseldemon- What railroad were or are ya working for? My friend ed's been runnin i think that train for a while now. I'm not sure if he's still doing it. He might have left when he went into the army. Just thought it'd be kinda funny if it was the same train.

 

Jisthangin I know the bull bars are out there ive seen them too. Im sure if you wanted to just buy one and modify your bumper it would work. I on the other hand do not want to cut chunks out of my bumper, probably screw it up. I havent found one that works on a sport yet. The grill guards ive found are hard to come by and more $$$. Ive also looked into a roofrack like a defender just to mount some lights on it. havent found one yet that will work.

 

Allen, keep me posted, I mapquested for where you are located, i'd be willing to head down

 

Just sent you an email with my local info. Give me a call if you want any details on the roll bar. Didn't get a chance to take a pic, but could tomorrow unless you are headed here then.

originally ran for Conrail, the was bought out by Norfolk Southern. The only trains that run easy from Binghamton now are by a private railroad. The same guy who owns the NYS&W in Binghamton. It's all part of that Guilford Railway comp.

 

If something falls through and no one else wants it,I will grab it.Dont want to step on anyones shoes though.Just let me know.

 

Allen, As I talked to you before, my buddy jeff will be heading your way on his way back to Rochester and is willing to pick it up, thanks again.
