Thanks Walter and Rick. Tell ya what, Would ya like this? I'm kicking myself I didn't get a better picture of it. Notice the speeder in front of "Ole Two Bits"? It's a Fairmont speeder with a hit-and-miss engine on it similar to the EBT's spider and the other speeders. Being std gauge, I think I might be able do this speeder.

I'll see what I can do Walter. I'll do a little research on that era of speeders.

Wow! Nice work by Tom! :lol2: So now the human 'whistle' and 'hand bell' make a little more sense. ;)

It look so small now in that last shot. Or it's a giant driving it? Funny how different perspectives make it look so different. Don't think Buster Keaton could've gone across Canada on that little guy so comfortably. :lol2:

Probably not. The goofy box isn't near as big either. I think he would have an issue stuffing stuff in it. :good2:
