Re: Nice view of dunnage used to load bombs into boxcars
I think if you look at the way the Guy is balanced the bomb or casing is more or less wedged where it is. Otherwise l think he would fall backwards, though of course the photo only catches a moment in

Re: Nice view of dunnage used to load bombs into boxcars
Look at the ease at which that man is holding that shell. My bet is it is an empty casing and it is being shipped to some location where more exciting material will be added.

Re: Nice view of dunnage used to load bombs into boxcars
Being in Virgina would those be naval shells? Looks like they have collars on them to help move them around I am guessing?
Neat picture.

Re: Bulkhead gate steel arriving at Boulder City Railroad yards
These steel gates were not made by any steel mill on the UP. More likely, the gons are from eastern carriers serving steel mill.

Drills
Micromark used to sell a set of #41 - 60 drills. It is no longer in their catalog. Can't seem to find at Drill Bit City.
Any thoughts?
