Happy Birthday John Allen 0 ▲ Gallimore Railroading 1 hour ago · Life · hide · 0 comments I don't usually remember John Allen's birthday - July 2 - until after the day has passed. This year I happened to notice the announcement in the G&D group (former Yahoo group) and decided I'd celebrate with a special train. I assembled a short consist of cars from John's friends who had contributed rolling stock from their railroads to run on the Gorre & Daphetid. These cars are actual equipment from those roads, not reproductions or tribute cars, though they may not match the car types seen on the G&D.I shot a short video of a run-by, but here are photos of each car as they appear in the train:Bud Sima's PURR, from the Milt Moore collection.Frank Murray's Seaford & Oyster Bay.Malcolm Vordenbaum's Caruth and CentralBill McClanahan's T&RGWKen Vere's Caribou SouthernHey, how'd that get in there?!?And here's the video:Happy Birthday, John.
