Hey all!
Because I know you’re all so proud of your rosters…how about showing them off! Please post pictures of your favorite engines and/or cars.

I do not believe you can post photos directly on THIS forum, only links to images that appear on another website. FREE space for posting RAILROAD AND RAIL MODEL IMAGES is available at
http://www.railimages.com
with instructions for registering, etc. Once you have set up a photo with a railimages account, you can put it on a bulletin board like this one.

These are some photos that I had previously uploaded to this computer.

This is another COG locomotive from my uncle. I think it is an E?. Any ideas? http://community.webshots.com/photo/109373438/118568257uhPmBv

This is a Southern hopper that I weathered and added grafitti to: http://community.webshots.com/photo/109373438/155763707KHnlRc This is a closeup of the grafitti on another car: http://community.webshots.com/photo/109373438/155764076qqMGTg A little more care could have and should have been taken by me when handling the car.
And this is my entire roster excluding one locomotive: http://community.webshots.com/photo/109373438/155766165iSMnvF
