And we shall carry on…

MAbruce I don’t believe you left a request.

This is a scene from Mike Hamer’s B&M railroad.

Any other timber industry scenes floating about?

Timber industry? Here are some loggers on our outdoor G scale layout

:

Show me a gas station/service station

Well as soon as we get pass this road work there is a gas station!

Any more road work?

Ken

No road work I guess… Here’s an intersection.

Show me road signs.

Here’s a couple. DJ.

Show me old autos.

An Essex, a Vicky, a woody, and an old Ford truck:

Show me this fellow (chubby gent on observation car) on your layout:

The chubby guy you asked for is sitting at the corner table at the top of the photo with his back to the window.

So much for chubby guys. Show me somebody on your layout who might be a movie star.

Sorry, I can’t put that on here…
Honoring the previous Request!
Show Me a Movie Star!

Well drat. If you don’t have a person on your layout who could be a movie star, do you have a train that looks like a movie star?

Looks like movie stars are rare, so back ti the chubby guy.

Honest Sam looks on as a young couple looks at his cars. The husband is trying to convince his wife that the sporty maroon coupe is a better buy than the older tan sedan. (This is 1950.)

SHow me someone else who is selling something

No body selling I see. Well, then, how about showing some abandoned caboose that looks like a family of racoons is living in it.

Maybe we could go with something not so specific such as…

Show me something dirty.

Jarrell

A abandoned caboose that looks like a family of racoons is living in it would be dirty.[swg]

This is from ON30.ca

Show me a cement works siding

This small cement plant may qualify as a “cement works”. It is slightly modified IHC model, and it is adjacent to a slightly modified Atlas lumber yard building.

Please show a switcher locomotive at work.

This industry, located just across the mainline from the yard, is at times worked by switch engines like this 0-8-0 instead of a road locomotive.

Show me a diesel switcher at work!

Jarrell

Alco switching the siding at Stoney Creek. DJ.

Show me a passenger diesel.

Here’s an SP E7 AB set.

Show me an UP modern locomotive.

Micheal, if it is 1944 this would still be a new UP engine! [swg]

Show me a Big Tree
