1. Not all the vehicles were shiny. A vintage Diamond-T pickup awaiting restoration.
2. This late model Peterbilt had it's exhaust re-routed behind the third axle and below the frame. Notice the absence of exhaust stacks.
3. Work continues on the Emma Nevada.

Cheers,
Jack

Big old trucks and trains are a
perfect combination .

Many railfans also "dig rigs", indeed almost any form of vintage transportation gets our attention--steamboats, biplanes, stagecoaches even pack mules

Is it just me, or doeas the Emma Nevada's supports look bit flimsy?  Narrow stacks of cribbing?  Is it sitting on boxes with handles?

At first glance, I would agree with you but it has several points of support.
I would just personally think over night it should have some additional cribbing placed under her.
​It is earth Quake country.
