Big River Boat in New York

A river boat uses big paddles to push through the water.  Regular boats have big propellers on the back underwater.  This one is in New York City.  I did not know there were river boats in New York City.  This one would be fun to ride.

Here is a website that tells you more about Paddle Wheels:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paddlewheel

Big Gasoline Truck

This work is dedicated to the Public Domain

This truck can carry 10,000 gallons of gas. That is a lot. The hoses are stuck into tanks in the ground. They put the gas there from the tanks on the truck.

Gasoline is useful. But it smells funny.

Big Blue International Truck

This work is dedicated to the Public Domain

This truck was made by International. They have made trucks like this for a long long time. This one is called a Cab Over. It hauls lots of stuff. It also looks like it hit lots of stuff too.

The building behind it is wrapped in plastic. It looks like a giant Christmas present when you stand in front of it. I think they are turning the building into condos or coffee shops or a gym.

If you want to use this picture for something it is okay. I put it in the Public Domain and that means anybody can use it for stuff. It is fun to share. Click on the picture and you will see it a lot bigger.

Big Navy Frigate Ship

This Navy ship is the USS Taylor. It is called a frigate. Frigates help defend other ships from harm on the ocean. I like how the front of the ship is super pointy. It looks mean. What is your favorite part?

You can find a really big version of this picture here: http://www.navy.mil/management/photodb/photos/090114-N-0780F-001.jpg

Big Dirty Diesel Train Engine

I guess they do not have time to wash this engine because it is working so hard.  I took this picture and the engine was running.  It sounded big and dirty.

Big Air Force Monster Truck

The Air Force has a monster truck too. This one looks like a Cadillac Escalade. I do not think it has any leather seats or DVD players inside. Click the picture to see a big big version.

Lots of Big Trucks

This work is dedicated to the Public Domain

These big trucks have a lot of names.  People call them semi trucks.  They are also called tractor trailers.  Some people call them rigs.  Other people call them 18 wheelers.  This kind of truck pulls trailers filled with stuff from one place to another.  They can go a long way and not stop all the time for fuel.  Drivers will sleep in the back sometimes.

I took this picture in Seattle.  You can use it if you want because I put it in Public Domain.  It is fun to share your stuff.

Big Orange Diesel Engine Train

Trains are super big.  This one hauls freight cars around a train yard. It helps put together trains that go to places like Los Angeles and Chicago.  BNSF has trains in lots of states.

I like this orange train because up close it was shiny.

Big Mack Truck Tractor Trailer

This work is dedicated to the Public Domain

This big truck pulls trailers full of stuff.  It was parked under some power lines by a place where trains pick up cargo.  It is built by Mack.  They have made cool looking trucks for a long long time.

This picture is in the Public Domain.  That means you can use it for stuff if you want.  Reports, pictures on your wall, a Valentines card for your Mom, whatever you want.  I like sharing stuff with people on Randy's Big Stuff Blog.

Big Fuel Tanker Jet

This is a big fuel tanker in the sky. It gives jet fuel to other airplanes when they are flying. It is very hard to do this. I do not want to try it. The picture was taken in the 1960s.

This tanker is like a Boeing 707 airplane, but this one is called the KC-135. Here is a website about it: http://www.af.mil/factsheets/factsheet.asp?fsID=110

Big Air Force B-1 Bomber

Photo courtesty of U.S. Air Force

This is a B-1 Bomber. It was supposed to replace my favorite bomber - the B-52. But the B-52 is too cool and big to replace so the B-1 bomber is going to be replaced now instead.

The B-1 Bomber has wings that move back and forth. Here is a website about it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-1_Lancer

Big Tow Truck With Flames

This work is dedicated to the Public Domain

This is a big tow truck.  Sometimes it is called a Wrecker because it picks up broken cars from the road.  This one has flames painted on the hood.  The rest is covered with black paint.

I like tow trucks a lot.  They help me out because my car breaks downs all the time.

Big Old Red Truck

This work is dedicated to the Public Domain

This kind of Ford truck is called a cabover. It can pull big trailers filled with stuff for stores. This truck is older than me. The grass under the bumper is older than me. It has been sitting for a long time. I like the color anyway.

Big Fire Department Ladder Truck

This fire fighting ladder truck is very long. It has two steering wheels. One firefighter sits at the back to help steer it around corners. This truck helps firefighters get into tall buildings. It works in the city of Bellevue WA.

Firefighters are heros because they save people.

Big Union Pacific Train

This engine pulls freight cars around a train yard to make bigger trains. I took this picture in Fife WA in 2005. That is near Tacoma. It is fun to take pictures of trains because they are very very big.

Union Pacific is a very big railroad. They really like the color yellow. You can find out more about Union Pacific at this website - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_Pacific_Railroad

This is a jet airplane in 1946. That is a long time ago. It was flown by NASA pilots to test things like instruments and electronics. This jet also has wheels like a tricycle.
