¿ªÔÆÌåÓýMike if I understand you correctly,
this is what we called a cab extension window?? If so, River
Raisin included them in the extra parts for the SD-7/9 maybe
others too.? In an earlier era, one of our true brass craftsman?
guys built one for me to fit the Milwaukee Alco Road switchers.? I
asked for one that the Milwaukee cobbled together.? After seeing a
couple of photos, he didn't say anything till a later meeting, he
showed it to me.? Wonderful craftsmanship.? He cut it from a
single piece of sheet brass then folded, soldered it together.?
Only one problem, was he made it fit the cab window if it was
being used on the opposite side or short hood forward--(two panes
vs three).? So I've carried it in my parts stash for 25 years.?
His name was Fred Little a former tool
designer of sorts for Howard Hughes, but mainly an 0 guy but I
guess he liked our people better!? He also created masters for the
Franklin Mint's collection of classic cars,? our local S pewter
detail parts plus he and his son originated the Black/Decker
Workmate bench. ?
