Post subject: | Gardner-Denver AAB Air Compressor: wanted |
Valley Railroad needs a compressor as described above to replace one which suffered a catastrophic failure on our c.1940 GE 80 ton locomotive No.0901. This compressor is 31" high, 31" long (over the sheave) and 14" wide. We could use a complete unit or just the body. We would replace it with a more standard unit, but the space it fits into is barely larger than the compressor itself. I suppose we could mount a more standard compressor out on the running board, but we would like to keep this historic unit as original as possible. We have already contacted Birmingham Rail & Locomotive, Western Star and George Slicott without success. Thanks in advance! valley.railroad@snet.net 860-767-2571 (Dave or Wayne). J.David |
