    Two interesting photos from UC/Calisphere, a Pope Hartford at the Anaheim Southern Pacific Railway Depot, and a cut down rig driven by Charlie Baer.

    No idea what the car is, but they sure crammed a lot into the photo including family and the dog. By the looks of it, there is a bit of distortion from the lens that makes the car look out of sorts.

    More early iron, prepping for a run in NH. Hard to say for sure, but I'm going with 1908 Packard model 30 at left, and a Maxwell on the right. In the middle... ?

    I believe this one to be a 1907 or '08 Elmore.

    Interesting how the word ERIE shows up in this flood picture. I'm sure it was a very ERIE event.

    Actually, it probably means that the bridge was a rail bridge built by the Erie Railroad. But unless those flood waters are from Lake Erie, or the railroad caused the flood, I'm not sure it qualifies as an Erie event.

    It may have been an eerie event, but not necessarily an Erie event.

    This guy liked plates, guns and who knows what else. I'd like to see the crowd this would draw if parked at Hershey...
