The Davenport of Buffalo  Contributor's Pick!       
Believe it or not, this was a running engine, regularly used. This 35 ton Davenport was used weekly to pull loaded grain hoppers through the dumper. Who needs a coupler on the front when you're only using the back? Reengined with a skid mounted Cat engine, you can see the new radiator through the front. A great little beast, working only a few miles from its birthplace.
