Thanks all. Never looked deep into the background but definitely parked outside a railway station. Likely a Canadian Pacific rail car - good eye!!
I'll keep looking around. I have it in my head that I want to do a restoration project but would not be adverse to just driving one away either. I would miss the great pleasure and or frustration of a project but my wife might prefer to actually get to go for a ride before we end our time on the planet. Cheers, Jack

The wooden gun totin' youngster looks about 6 and he was born 1920. So if brand new, we are looking at 1926 vehicle. The grandfather (not in the pic) was fairly well to do for the era so it could be new(ish). Grandma in the pic was a strong farm woman and outlasted hubby for many years. Cheers, Jack

Jack, there is a dealer in Michigan that lists several T Models in the twelves that seem to be in clean condition. Some dealers think T Models are worth 20 to 30 thousand in running condition. No way.
