Friday morning we had slept poorly because of all the noise so we got up late. I dropped Julie off at the laundromat and went grocery shop...

Nice, thanks!Originally posted by rockin86ranger View PostThe land trains were built for scientific exploration of the rugged tundras, they were build to carry all that the crew would ever need and be able to go anywhere. I believe they were also used to deliver supplies to remote villages for a little while. They are most commonly known as being the wheel/tire donor for Bigfoot 5.
