Steam & Excursion > Another builder plate whereisit/whatisitDate: 03/02/11 10:32 Another builder plate whereisit/whatisit Author: ddg Where must I have been to find these on display? Anybody know what they came from? Look West.
  Date: 03/02/11 11:09 Re: Another builder plate whereisit/whatisit Author: BDrotarIII The number plate is off of Marble Cliff Quarries number 23, formerly Donald Davis' 196, in Hillsboro, Oregon or Poneto, Indiana. The builders plate is off of Kahului RR number 1 "Claus Spreckels" in Kahului.

The caboose of course isn't real. Were there ever any standard gauge operations in Hawaii? Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 03/03/11 07:05 by filmteknik.

Started out in Oahu, wound up on the
Big Island where I found this small museum. Didn't have time to do much research, just looked around for a few minutes, & kept driving. Had some neat stuff from the Hilo RR. Date: 03/22/11 09:54 Re: Another builder plate whereisit/whatisit Author: Kodachromedude filmteknik Wrote:
