Picture 26 (I think), what was this steam locomotive originally used
for? It is so small.

To make a long story short....it's French. I would guess it was used in a factory or mountain area because of it's size and narrow gauge. It was captured by the Germans in WWII and used to haul ammo. Sometime in the 70's it was imported to the US and finally to Dalton.

Those are some good pictures you"ve got there.

Just a couple questions though from a youngster, in picture 2, the MM Jetstar, is that some sort of mower mounted to the belly?

And what is the contraption is picutre #6, a potato harvester or something of the sort?

Great photos, Rick! Thanks for posting them. I really admire Molines. Incredible engineering. My Grandfather was a Moline man (then Oliver to White). Someday I'll have a Moline on the farm. I'll just have to make sure I "find it out in the old scrap pile in the back 40."

That lokked to be some kind of burner.

Nope that's an elevating grader.
