Have fun!
I remember one day Bob Cummins (at the other end of the block) had been tinkering with the "Whompin Wagon" and decided to take a test run down Hannon Avenue. Not a good idea...

I still remember seeing him stomp up the street where he commenced to lecture Bob on the vices of "street cars". LOLPatRyan and firemansam like this.
