Re: Hobart Estates - REALLY Narrow Gauge!
| May 16, 2017 10:22AM |
Attached (hopefully) is a 1938 photo of the Hobart Estate gas locos at Hyman-Michaels Scrap Yard in South San Francisco. All are Milwaukee Locomotive Co. products: left to right, #1, 2, 3. Does anyone in the group have builder's data for them? Number 1 was built in 1908, #2 in 1909-10. Confirmation of three foot gauge also needed.
