They must have because lately, I have had to return many items from Amazon. Bob.

I think Amazon bought Acme .....

Yes, I still watch those cartoons and still laugh my ass off. Bob.

I like it! Grew up on those old cartoons. I never ran into a wall, jumped off a cliff or hit myself in the head with an anvil though? Hmm.....

Christian, I thought you might get a kick out of this carving of the Coyote and the Road Runner that I carved to put in one of my rc airplanes, by the way, the coyote crashed it. Bob.

Can't wait to see it. Bob.

thank you very much Bob and my wish for next work

Beautiful, one of a kind project, Bob.

Hello Correction of the exact number of the machine which was unloaded at ORAN port (North africa .) Création of a quayside defense. End of my USATC S160 works. About 6 pointed star I by email asked the question to the staff of Fort Eustice US Army transportation museum BUT I have not and will never have an answer. I wonder if they would really be interested in my donation????? who knows !!!

Funny, Bob.

good understanding between Army and Navy. """"""What's this hook for ????????? """""Well to pull your ship !!!! idiot

Chuck, great minds think alike, I also agree. Bob.

I agree with Christian as they are toys!

You shouldn't withdraw from the forum. I couldn't understand if that was a dig, or just a misuse of your translation and use of the word toy. Whichever it is, don't withdraw as your work is fantastic and should be shared. Bob.

hello BOB back home after 3 days vacation I NEVER wanted to say that your scratch built models were toys -- very sory Bob - it is not my temperament I apologize for my bad language writing and dead of shame I am withdrawing from the forum Christian

Christian, just so we are talking apples and apples, this is a toy, Bob.

Christian, I am bothered by your reference of "toys", used in describing my scratch built models. Do you also describe your beautiful models as toys? Is there something in your translation that I am not aware of? Bob.

Thanks Christian, I do like my powered toys, Bob.

Hmm, found out that the rear KD wasn't fully screwed on! Oops. Easy fix.

NEWS from a friend port photo taken at CARDIFF port -(GB) modified by me with my MAC magnifying glass and colorized on the net But nothing for the 6 star

Yes I saw your videoS a few weeks ago good job and nice toy (and a caress to kitty) Bob !!! I am very very sorry but impossible to see a crescent around the star BUT for me (and many Américan people certainly ) it's the US ARMY emblem whose white circle (or yellow for 1941) has been ""erased "by time. A And the photo is distorted by the fold. and I saw your small machine gun on shelves mine is there https://modelismemilitaire.blogspot.com/2020/07/armement-page-9.html

Christian, look closely at the star on the tractor and I see a crescent around the star, subdued. Bob.

Christian, I don't know if you have viewed my youtube channel, so, if you haven't, here is my attempt in a scratch, T1 loco, tender, and heavyweight passenger car. Also, my superliner scratch built train. Bob.

are you speaking really of OMAN ???????????? or ORAN (finger error on keyboard maybe) the tractor is an U.S with 5 points white star and in Algéria 1943 the flag was french flag without star. Now since 1962 algérian flag has a red star between a crescent moon leaning to the right while yours are straight

According to the number 1670, it was built by Baldwin in the US, sent to England and then to Oran.. Over 2000 of these were built by, Alco, Lima, and Baldwin for the war, most used in England and after sold to many countries after the war. The star on the tractor appears to be an Algerian flag star, 5 points, and the star on the loco has six points, like the star of David from Israel, don't know. It looks like the star might have been attached on some packing wood maybe a joke, having to do with shipping. The loco had to travel between many countries to get to Oman, Algeria. Might have just been attached on a piece of wood that was used for the shipping, and not having any real meaning. Bob.
