    Quick history, Fostoria was on Hitlers list of places to bomb if they could invade or get planes that far. At that time the rail head for Fostoria interconnected with everyone in the US. It had the possibility of crippling train movement in the US.

    I wasn’t think 3408, they had very little market penetration and even they won’t keep up with a good E model or C15. You the E9 made the rest look like they were standing still, nothing about V blocks.

    You could get a 238 in a V, we had them in construction equipment.

    I googled it just for the heck of it, Wikipedia even lists them at 238. There were definitely variations though. I just know they called the ones in our old compactors 238’s and they were V blocks. D84742DA-E31C-45E8-AFD4-515CA2132CC8.jpeg
