I find the German “Nurflügel” or ‘flying wing’ designs interesting and this is related, although it has a tailplane that looks like a bomber from WWI. The Junkers G.38 was the largest land-based airplane of it´s day (the Dornier Do-X was a boat plane).

The Haitian Sugar Train

Thinking this to be the appropriate ( hey, its an industrial rr) place, thought I would post a few pictures of my latest creation. This is the Haitian Sugar train that ran from Port au Prince Haiti to Leogane Haiti in the 1920’s.
