Is there such thing as a "oldest Thunderbolt 1000T"? I've been wondering about that one. In terms of the oldest known manufactured 1000T, that would be T-420, of which the blower of is in Upson County, Georgia. Said blower is currently mated to the head of T-507, while the head for it is ...

At the moment, a unit with the serial of apparently T57 has been documented, although the tag itself is extremely illegible as it had been sandblasted. Many members of the community doubt that the tag actually reads T57. It being the oldest existing unit remains unconfirmed. If we are talking in ter...

It's also a Thunderbolt on Long Island, which is near New York City, so an active Thun...

It’s a 1000B from April of 1981 (serial is A008446 D81, if you’re asking). Came from TVA’s Browns Ferry p...
