I have a strange brain. Someone says something, or I think of something, and a new something pops up.

Rick A's post above just tickled my brain cells, and the Iron Man at the late Ward Kimball's private railroad popped up.

And here's a nice article and plenty of photographs, too.

As I recall from an article in Model Railroader about that visit to Ward's railroad, that Iron Man was inspired by the Steam Man illustrations.

Should we mention the whole Boilerplate robot story?
