Boilermaker Special II
In 1953, the Boilermaker Special II was created by installing the original Baldwin body from the Boilermaker Special I on an International Harvester truck chassis. A matching trailer was added during the 1950s to increase the passenger seating capacity. The trailer remained in use until the early 1990s.
The Boilermaker Special II was scrapped around 1960 in a Lafayette salvage yard. This was personally witnessed by Reamer Club member Roger Brunstrum so that no one could later claim they owned the mascot.

Famous quotes containing the word special:
“O my Brothers! love your Country. Our Country is our home, the home which God has given us, placing therein a numerous family which we love and are loved by, and with which we have a more intimate and quicker communion of feeling and thought than with others; a family which by its concentration upon a given spot, and by the homogeneous nature of its elements, is destined for a special kind of activity.”
—Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
