Me in front of the Panchito B-25
Now I know what you’re all thinking, this has nothing to do with trains! But this plane is from the 1940s, the point in history when the steam age was coming to a close. But anyway, this is a WWII B-25 Bomber called the Panchito. Trains are my main preference, but my second obsession is WWII war aircrafts and machinery. My town was celebrating the WWII era last week, and there was all sorts of cool stuff going on. My family is always joking with me, saying that I was born in the wrong century(I like the 30s and 40s, I like steam locomotives, I wear a fedora, etc.). So I’m always happy to see some of this vintage machinery, especially when it’s actually working. I got a few pictures of the plane, and even some video! But I can’t upload the video on the blog! So I’m going to put it on YouTube, I’ll let you know when it’s up. But for now, enjoy these pictures and I’ll keep you posted!
