Nostalgia & History > A Few Windsplitter PicturesDate: 05/04/15 11:52 A Few Windsplitter Pictures Author: MartyBernard Here are some Wind Splitter pictures, i.e., photos of Virginia & Truckee 22, a McKeen motor car taken October 29, 2011. What a beautiful renovation by the volunteers at the Nevada State Railroad Museum.
Enjoy, Marty Bernard    Date: 05/04/15 11:55 Re: A Few Windsplitter Pictures Author: MartyBernard .

Everytime I've ever seen it running, why is someone always standing on the bottom step of the door? Just curious.
Date: 05/05/15 15:18 Re: A Few Windsplitter Pictures Author: MartyBernard The day I took that picture the guy on the bottom step was the volunteer being the conductor. Can you think of a better place to stand? You are actually in the middle of the passenger compartment.
[Edit] Come to think of it, that position let's him controll the only passenger door. Marty Bernard Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 05/05/15 16:03 by MartyBernard. Date: 05/05/15 16:54 Re: A Few Windsplitter Pictures Author: JimBaker In my humble opinion, that center door is the only place you can see anything ahead from the passenger compartment.
