[AT] maybe a bit OT-steam shovel

[Lew Best]

Hey gang
 
Just got back from a quick trip to Kansas City; saw something I think
was really neat.
 
There was a small “steam shovel” (though it may not be steam powered;
boom & bucket design are similar to HYPERLINK
"http://tinyurl.com/2ay3yu"http://tinyurl.com/2ay3yu pictureHYPERLINK
"http://www.olivertractors.ca/1925%20Steam%20Shovel.JPG") that sits just
off the ramp when you leave north bound I-35 to get onto east bound I
70.  I could be wrong on the location; I did go both ways thru that
interchange; about 90% sure I’m right but possibly could be on the ramp
leaving 70 to get back onto southbound 35.  I believe it’s probably only
about half the size of the one in the link though.  It’s in a
construction company yard (obviously as a display) & you’d have to get
onto one of the regular streets & preferably into their yard to take pix
I’d think.   
 
Is anyone close to this that might be able to get info & pix for me?  It
just looks SO NEAT!  No idea if I’ll ever get back that way with fuel
prices where they are.
 
Thanks.
