Does anyone know why "60" is painted on both sides of that Mobil Directo?

Because the FD is probably Station 60 for some district or county. Or it could be an engine company designation.

This cute Modulator 1004 is in Broadwell, IL. I have a strange desire to hug it. I've probably been doing too much mapping today.

I thought that one Tbolt at 8 rpm rotated fast! I'm guessing 12 rpm on that MD, enough to make you dizzy by watching it. :crazy:
