DIR Handcar - Duluth & Iron Range
Title:  DIR Handcar - Duluth & Iron Range
Description:  Although a fuzzy pic, this little handcar was the original way that crew members could travel to inspect the rail lines. Some call these units "strong arm cars" as you would surely develop some arm bulges after using it!

DIR RR Velocipede - Duluth & Iron Range
Title:  DIR RR Velocipede - Duluth & Iron Range
Description:  Another form of transit for rr workers would have been this velocipede which is nothing more than a bicycle fitted to travel on the rails. this particular version would have used arm power rather than leg power to move the unit down the tracks. Again, some would call it a "strong arm car" for obvious reasons.

KCL Derrick Car #1
Title:  KCL Derrick Car #1
Description:  Somewhat confusing is this maintenance of way derrick car which was labeled on the back as derrick car #1 belonging to the Kansas City, Leavenworth & Western Rwy. The Leavenworth, Kansas, and Western was originally a narrow gauge line that extended from Leavenworth to points West of Miltonvale. Most of it, including the portion in Leavenworth (upgraded to standard gauge in in the 1890's) was abandoned in the 1930's. However, during the same time was Kansas City & Leavenworth Electric line which operated from Kansas City Missouri to Leavenworth into the mid-1930's. This appears to be from this company since it has the single pole pantograph on it. The photo was labeled and taken by Ray Hilcox of Topeka, KS. If anyone has further information on this piece, I would like to hear from you.

The crane was built by the Brown Hoisting Machinery Co. in 1913 and originally had a trolley pole, but it could also be powered by an extension cord when on tracks without overhead trolley wires.
