    Overland Trains. I want one!

    I just ran across this while doing random Google image searches.

    Apparently this one is restored and several of its trailers are being put back together as well. Theres a transportation museum in Fairbanks where this is on display. But theres all sorts of toys like this out there...heres the link for these two.

    That cab...the antennas...OMGWTFBBQ it's a Whackermobile! :shock:

    And the link: "LeTourneau Land Trains"...that what Mary Kay called it when she and Vili were doin' the nasty? Or did they hide aboard such, away from the watchful eyes of her husband at the time?

    I want radar on my car, too!
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Thats a terrible place to hide from a jealous hubby...its the first place he will look. Not because he wants to find his wife, he will forget all about her once he sees this thing. He will climb in to play with the controls, find her there getting jiggy with someone else and then turn back to what he was focused on because....its a fucking Land Train!!


    Put like that, it may be the perfect spot for extracurricular activities.
