New look for Sperry Rail Cars

Always have Sperry Rail Trucks moving through town traveling between all the different lines in the area. The old Doodlebugs are long gone and they were replaced by large rail/trucks. Well, looks like technology has down sized it all again. So a Sperry RAIL TRUCK made from one of these heading through town thew other day. Nothing showing on the Sperry site, yet.

Hi Ric,

While its sad to think the doodlebug’s days are numbered…its good to see technology improving too.

However, up in northern new england we still see an occasional blast from the past!

Sigh

Blind old guys that can’t surf websites properly are always left in the dark. That would be the Sperry 7000

That would be the SRS 100

Being local to their World HQ I get to see many variations of their equipment; much of it retired. Haven’t seen one of the new 7000’s yet though.

That is one of them Made in Mexico Mercedes Vans.

Roosters picture is a chinese knockoff… not a mercedes… oh the horror

Yep, that’s the type of Sperry equipment I saw. I never worry about Rooster’s comments. I

was the one that found his portrait online. :wink:

Nice to know that he is sometimes searching appropriate websites for a change. AndyC gave up on him a long time ago.
