Evan "Auto-Railer" Rail Bus Grill, scrapbook, booklet

Item Details

Description

This is a special group of items from the Evans "Dual Purpose Streamlined Auto Railer" which was used on the Narragansett Pier Railroad. Included is the last Alan Thomas scrapbook that we have that has other New England shortlines too, but definitive pictures of the rail bus in action in 1951. Alan Thomas purchased this rial bus. Also included are color photos from 2010 showing the rail bus in deteriorating condition in the woods of New Hampshire. I harvested the grill from this Evans rail bus a couple of years ago and that was about all that could be salvaged at that time. These relics do not improve when left in the woods. The 11" by 8 1/2" booklet is great with detailed photos and other information. The only dates I noticed were 1933-1934. Evans was going to make freight adn Express versions but I think the only built emaples are this passenger bus. This was a hi-railer public transportation company out of Detroit and it was short lived!

The actual grill measures about 30" by 32" and it is heavier than it looks. It has a swinging arm so that the engine could be worked on with the grill in an "propped up" position. It shows wear and is missing one vertical tine.

Be the first kid on your block to own this unique group of rail history. This is my favorite item in this auction. You won't see another any time soon.
