Who is Ed Bowers?

A question for our time…

LC

Actually LC,The name rings a bell for me,but just can’t figure it out.
And when I do hear the answer,I’m probably going to “slap” myself.

Actually, I know some things about Ed. I’ve even talked to him from time to time. He is a major acquirer of locomotives particularly old and rare ones. Buys Alcos all over from what I know. Just want to hear what everyone else has to say too…

LC

Thanks LC,and maybe I won’t slap myself!

No need to slap yourself. There are easier ways to wake up …lol…

LC

yes, coffee mixed with a little, ok a lot of whiskey… waking up plus a buzz [:D]

For me,ONLY beer. It has worked in the past.[:D][}:)]

Limitedclear is correct about Ed collecting old locomotives.
Ed, who lives in texas, is a pleasant and intersesting fellow to talk to.[:)]
We are currently negotiating a deal on two of my locos.
Some of Eds collection can be found listed in these pages:

Copy the http but dont include the “<>'s”, then paste it in your address bar.

Mr. Bowers has been helpful to the Arkansas Railroad Museum in Pine Bluff. Thanks for the Alcos.

I thought he had a line of clothing for sale.
