It never ceases to amaze me what people built back in the days when they didn't have anywhere near the technology we have today. Incredible stuff! I still think we've got nothing on those guys, considering what they created with less.

Pretty cool that the 675 had an all mechanical drivetrain. Now days anything that big would be electro-mechanical, eploying electric motors on the axles, and an alternator driven by the engine(s).
