In memory of Richard (Dick) Heidl (Sept. 12, 1926-Feb. 15, 2009)

He was a good engine man & good friend.  Dick was quite a character at the shows, he enjoyed everything about them & he had been a part of them for a long time. He usually participated in shows around Ohio but regularly attended a few out of state such as Portland, IN & Coolspring, PA. For over 20 years he was along for most the engine trips my dad & I went on; we had a lot of good times & he will be missed. If you have any good memories about him you’d like to post please go to;  http://www.smokstak.com/forum/showthread.php?p=386106 

Thanks,

*A few years before his passing Dick had given me the flywheel that the Type D engine was patterned off of.
