Progress may have been all right once, but it has gone on too long.

| It looks like Freight Train was the 1st to get this one, This truck is a 1952 Biederman O-11 crash truck as used by the USAF. This big 6x6 was engineered entirely in-house at Biederman, and the entire truck was assembled in their Cincinatti shops. Power came from a 280 hp Continental 6. This truck is missing the grille guard which is present in every photo I have seen of this model. Thanks to Don MacKenzie for the photo. The b&w photos are from Dan Souday. Endeavour launched flawlessly right on time at 0414 am this morning. It was so clear we could see it for almost 7-1/2 minutes, barely a minute before main engine cut-off. God speed Endeavour !
