Various cool pre WWI cars

New York Mayor McClellan


1918 Ford


1908 crippled childrens outing, click on this (well, all of them) to get full size, and check out the one woman in the backseat of each car... they are all wearing a bee net over their hats. Fashion of the time, but what a goofy look.

1903 Winton

1917 Moonlight joyride... how far out is that, on the tractor adapter.


1910 Stanley Steamer


1913 Insurance patrol

The train horn sounds what is called a minor seventh chord, which is louder than the major chord that is sounded by normal truck horns. The train blows these horns in certain recognized sequences that are pre-determined for different situations, e.g. at a grade crossing.
