Time to give a little back for this, my 100th qualitative PCS thread. Inspired by a good friend who lurks here and planned for a couple months.
Like the coach builder badge ID reference guide, the intent is to ultimately provide an all-inclusive definitive look at landau irons through the decades not found in any one publication nor website. Took perusing thousands of saved images weeding duplicates, picking best angles that show enough detail, cropping - and of course taking specific shots as well.
Took considerable time researching trying to find what exactly would be correct for my own missing landau irons. In doing so I realized how valuable a tool a guide can be.
Further submissions encouraged. All I ask when adding pictures is that they're limited to landau area/rear of coach and large enough to see detail. Please no distance shots nor complete coaches as it misses the point.
