KCS RUDY
Title:  KCS RUDY
Description:  At one time that was a plain ole flat car. But after some very handy craftsman work that is now an honorary steam locomotive. There is four seats in the cab for a "engineer" and the grinch to sit in. There is a whistle and smoke along with valves for steam out of the cylinder cocks. On the back of the cab is two rather expensive nut crackers that are covered during transit from stop to stop.

Title:  Side view of Rudy
Description:  The boiler is an old tankcar. To the best of my knowledge the cab is custom built. The number on the side of the cab changes each year.
