Show Me Something July 2017

Welcome to the “Show Me Something” thread! This is a place where forum members can post their photos containing a view of the “requested” scene or object.

No “real-life” photos but models only. After 24 hours, if the requested scene is not posted anyone is welcome to make their own submission and make their own request. It’s all about having fun!

The last request was for trucks. Here are some trucks at the intermodal yard.

Please show me Autoracks, Piggybacks, or Double Stacks.

Here is a STRATTON & GILLETTE TOFC (trailer on flat car, same as piggyback)waiting on a siding while someone needs to figure out how to unload it from the flat car.

.

The SGRR was a very early adopter of TOFC service, beginning with flat car conversions in the Summer of 1953.

This is the setup for the photograph.

Show me something else intermodal.

An intermodal flatcar set up for short UPS trailers. Also an empty container trailer.

Please show me one of your favorite pictures of your models.

Perhaps my all-time favorite photo, which was actually just a quick grab-shot with my phone. I am extremely pleased with how the scenery turned out on this part of the layout.

Amtrak #391 about to pass under US-24.

Please show another favorite photo of your models.

One of my favorites.

More favorite model photos please.

Here is a favorite of mine so far…

This was on the 1:1 cardboard layout. Best one I took.

Here’s one of my favorites.

A busy day for hostlers on the New York Central.

Let’s see your favorite photo.

Well, it can be pretty tough to pick one favorite… here’s a recent one.

I have a soft-spot for heavy electrics [:)]

More favorite scenes or photos, please…

Here’s one of mine…

Show me your favourite photo or scene, please.

I have more than one favorite, but here is one…

More favorites please.

My new Athearn SP FP-7’s with Ice Breakers, Snowplow and all the rest of the SP details.

What is your Showme request?

I am stuck in the PB doldrums, and have not had time to sign up for another service.

Hard to choose just one favorite but this one is among them

Show me a roundhouse or engine terminal photo.

Show me a roundhouse or engine terminal photo.

Okay, here’s the roundhouse on my layout.

Show me more roundhouses or engine servicing terminals.

Not much steam left. The hostler ends his day…

Let’s see more locomotive servicing, roundhouse, or backshop.

I don’t know what I’m doing different than everyone else! My Photobucket account has not changed, I have not received any notification from them and photo posting and uploading is no different than it ever was.

Been a PB user for ten years and I’m on the ad-free 20 program for $30/yr. I have about 2,400 photos there.

Maybe my turn in the “Bucket” will come— and I have several other alternatives— but so far, knock on ties, nothing has changed for me at PB.

I think the people who are having the problems are the ones using the free PB service. I was one of those people and haven’t used PB to post photos since. I now use railimages.com. It’s faster than PB and you also get to look at railroad pictures others have posted to the site.

Awaiting assignment at the Black River center.

More service areas please, steam or diesel.

You are a paying customer at photobucket, hence, no problems.
