<HTML>No mention of DATE for this mistery car,,,Could it be early ,,,,and the coils are the early gasoline vaporizer on top of the boiler,,,,There WAS a patent however , assigned TO STANLEY,,,by A L Riker #868012,,,,app/5 Jan 03 for a steam generator ,,,sort of,,,,,similar ,,to a White,,,Dave will tell me it's not even close ,,I know ,,,But to the untrained eye its a copy,,,,As far as I know this was just to protect themseves from White,,,,and was never carried into the experimental arena for testing or other,,,,,,,### THE water tube boiler patent was issued to F O Stanley # 1,342,606 ,,,app18 Jan 1919 and assigned to Unit Rail Car ,,,,CAMBRIDGE ,MASS ,, They went to water tube for this job,,,as the fire tube boiler didnt like what they were doing for fire!!!The Unit Co was Stanleys other side door,,making a steam ""Budliner"" This effort is coverd in a Stanley Museum Bulitan not to long ago......Cheers Ben</HTML>
