I had another long and boringshift so I got a few cars painted, 3 oil tankers that I mocked up as a Native American Oil company, all my friends were asking if I put a Casino on my layout and I had to do something and since my Tribe is too poor for a Casino I created a small scale (3 Tankers) oil company called Thunder Bird Oil…LOL!

I also defiled a box car and painted a tee pee scene on it and then still bored and later in the evening I created 3 open hoppers with a city sky line mural at dusk on them.

Disclosure: No good train cars were harmed in the making of these artsy fartsy train cars, all were ugly to begin with had no historical value.

I’m still at work so I can’t post any pics untilI return home.

Well, I have to say… although your work is probably the polar opposite of what I do (I tend to get wrapped around the axle on things like build and test dates, proper dimensional data, etc.), you are one of the most creative people I’ve seen in this hobby.

You get a resounding “A” in creativity!
