What is this Thing?

Modeling
#1

So what exactly is this thing?
That is the question that has been pondered, speculated and guessed at since the doors were cracked on engine bay #1 and this thing emerged. Rumour has it that the shop crew had resurected a long forgotten project and with new technological advances, newly aquired skills and a bit of “lets do it” attitude they were able to finally finish it.
The murmur from the crowd of onlookers and answer seekers was that they had never seen anything like this and “how about that dual exhaust” and “just what is that weird thing on the back?”

Questions will soon be answered but for now let the imagination and speculation soar.

#2

Where did they ever come up with the plans for A mobile Rubicon Turbulator? They were supposed to be Top Secret!

#3

A giant vacuum? :wink:

#4

Clearly that’s a giant flux capacitor on this end. So it must be a time machine that can transport you anywhere into the past or future, and return you from any past or future time that happens to have railroad tracks.

#5

Harnessing the power of the Bean…

Not long after the crew is sent; To beans, the Crap-o-matic WindBreaker harvests potent gasses from both ends…

:wink:

It is for sure a portable brewery, especially made for brewing green bheer from a mixture of many exotic grasses and acorns.

#8

I hope Fred is right;)

#9

looks like a boxcab built by rooster!

#10

Noting that the shop crew member who has brought this into the public’s eye is directly over the methane ionization chamber, we know this is the long awaited ‘Trimethane Restabilized Anti Molecular Propulsion Limiting Engine’. The crew seems to have done a superb job of assembling and equipping this new needed piece of equipment.

This one has been configured to handle terrorist activities on the lines properties. Simply note the rounded, padded, anti bomb pilot on that thing.

Speculation from the shop crew is that any blockage on the right of way will be sent into the next county

#11

Its a portable distillery for dihydro monoxide.

#12

A competitor for the train drag races.

#13

With that spoiler on the back end, and the racing paint job, I think you are right Todd. In the shadows, I think I see the end of a rocket nozzle, but I cannot tell for sure.

#14

It looks like a turbo encapsulator installed backwards, but what do I know? The dang things never work right, anyway.

I though a Dyson. But then the cost would have been prohibitive.

#16

Maybe the caboose crew has designed a giant coffee maker?

#17

This just smacks of a Gummint Project!

#18

Every Rail road has one or two of those hidden behind the engine house…that is what happens when the first train is running late and the second is making up time!

#19

After a few drinks it looks like Rooster with no feathers

#20

Got to be from the 70`s, see that Rad spoiler on the back/front?
