Wayne, I like the old A/B model Macks. I trained on a 1954 B model pumper when I joined my local fire company in the 1970's. My comment on old Fords is because of their extensive use by the Maine two-footers. Harry got me interested in their history. Four of the five operations had Ford track cars and/or railcars. Here's a short recap -
The Monson had a Model T powered track car. The B&SR had a Model T 4 door sedan track car (the one with the freight car front wheels). They also had a Model AA stake body truck for express deliveries. The SR&RL had the most Ford cars. They were built in the Phillips shop and used heavy channel stock for the frames. Car 3 was the large four seat car, Superintendent Vose's car was the open touring car, it survives at MNG. Track car 2, an open car survives at Owls Head (it's the model for our new track car), the second SR&RL car 3 was an open frame Model A track car, there's an operating replica at Phillips. The WW&F had the most original looking Model T. The open touring car retained it's frame, doors and soft top into the late 1920's. Our Model T was even more unusual in that it was rebuilt with a closed body. It sported a rare center door body for it's last few years of service.
As the Galloping Goose was perfect for the RGS, the Model T fits well on the Maine two-footers. They were used on other lines but I like the way they look on two foot rails.
