Great pictures Kim! I'm glad you got it running and it's nice to see it got some air time as well. Uncle Wayne looks like he enjoyed being part of it as well! Very nice!

I've been so busy this past week that I didn't have a good chance to really look at your pictures so I waited before I said anything. Thank you once again for taking part! I Love This Forum!

Thank You Jacob! Yes, it was a great time! Wayne still likes these machines, and we're gonna try to have more flying sessions this year. Our 'Guy's Day Out' now mostly consists of runs to Walmart for supplies and he's usually spent by the time we get home, so I'll be doubling up on the visits to have a morning where the planes are the only things happening.

Thanks again for this great project.

The W.S.T.E. is now on it's was to Bill-gwilliefox, we traded P.M.'s before it was launched...and he should have it by Monday.

Thanks again to all involved in the World's Smallest Traveling Engine !!!!

Showing the W.S.T.E. as 'delivered' to Bill 'gwilliefox' on Monday, but haven't gotten a P.M. reply yet. Please shoot me a note if you got it.

Any updates?

I am supposed to be on the list and wonder if there is a way to estimate when the engine may come around? Given my distant location from the rest of participants I am contemplating to sign off in order not to further elongate the engine's travel unnecessarily for others behind me on the list..

I do believe we have had this discussion before

world wide travel...new and interesting places...history lessons....very cool photos

No one at all cares about HOW long it takes to circumnavigate the globe

I personally don't care much about it running or flying.... I am more interested in the weird, strange, and cool places the dinky Cox has been and some of the back story of those places

I have learned more USA and World History on this web site than in all my years in schooling and life

Thank you for the encouragement Fred. This one below was just shot especially for you on MY OWN TRAVELING COX 010 TEE DEE ( I like to have one with me when I travel, just in case... Very Happy

) in Tuscani Italy where I drove down from Hungary with my wife for a short vacation...one of the plenty of gemboxes of beautiful Italy, Tuscani is renowned for its history, scenery....and Chianti red wines. And just lately, for the rare appearance in Italy of a COX010...

I really really need a world map or globe near my PC

I know where most countries in Europe are and have been to many....but a drive from Budapest to Tuscany....is curious
Google maps here is come

Thanks Balogh...great picture and background

balogh Thu Aug 16, 2018 12:59 pm

Fred it is a 600miles drive mostly on highways taking about 8.5 hours net...or gross if I drive alone and my intercontinental bladder allows an uninterrupted drive...but you know how it is when your wife sits on the passenger seat. Very Happy

**Admin** Thu Aug 16, 2018 2:25 pm

Beautiful picture Balogh! Hang in there, however long it takes, you should be able to have your turn with the Traveling Engine someday.

Anyone hear from Bill (GWILLIEFOX) lately?

GWILLIEFOX Sun Sep 09, 2018 4:49 pm

All is well. I'll be running it at the MECA National Collecto at AMA in Muncie Sept 24 then get it back on the road. I got called out of retirement for the third time to work on some new steel mills. And look at my feed (gw mohrbacher) on YouTube running diesels.

getback Mon Sep 10, 2018 7:16 am

I bet the diesels were more fun ! are you mixing your own fuel ? the engines sound good !

Make sure you make contact before you send it. We wouldn’t want it waiting on the porch while he is on vacation for a month.

Yep! Bill and I traded PM's yesterday and he knows it's coming. I'll get another PM with tracking # to Bill tomorrow after it's sent on it's way.

I HAD hoped to fly it over my Uncle Wayne's house today, but the winds were too much, so he kindly agreed to pose with it and the Fling!

Kim, what beautiful photos you have left here .... beautiful!
Thanks for sharing!

The guy ( tío ) is already very famous here! Thumbs Up

András ... a beautiful photo ... full of nostalgia with that landscape in the background ... beautiful! Hand Shake

balogh Mon Sep 10, 2018 9:06 am

Thank you Mauricio..you may remember for some time I thought you are Italian and only later I learnt that you are from Argentina. Very Happy

.I believe the landscapes and Latino-architecture should be similar in both countries?

Heck yea I still have that Pizza Pic Laughing
