Welcome to May, in the last post, GP-9_Man11786 requested a freight train from any southern railroad.
My first contribution to one of these threads, and I think I have just the thing…
A Blue Box SCL U36B I upgraded a couple of years ago posing with some rolling stock I would have seen rolling through my hometown in central Florida. The two brown boxcars are from the Plant City Model Railroad club.
Now show me an intermodal train on a western railroad…
Ok, let’s make this a little easier… just show me a shipping container (or two, or twenty [:D])
Early intermodal is the best I can provide. Show me something Northern.
How about a Great Northern boxcar:
Show me a lineside industry.
Not sure if this counts or not but here goes. The Grain elevator, Farm Supply company and flour mill are all lineside, rail-served industries. However the sidings are out of view in the photos. Let’s see more linside industries.
An old photo, just to move things along…
Country Kitchen bakery is a lineside industry
Show me some stock cars
Here are a few stock cars:
A short NYC ‘Meat Train’ passes the Farmers Union Elevator, eastbound, on the BRVRR layout.
Show me another freight train.
A Santa Fe local freight with some cars being switched.
Show me another freight train.
A train heading West up a grade through the Alberta foothills cattle country. Soon the Rockies will be the test and help wll be needed.
Show a train going downhill.
Here’s Amtrak’s Pennsylvanian headed downgrade into Altoona. Show me another train going down hill.
An iron ore train drifting down hill.
Show me a siding.
Passing siding on the right.
Show me another siding!
Jarrell
How about the siding on this little structure? LOL
-Bob
show me a water tower.
Three water tanks in this shot…
Show me a sanding facility - steam or diesel.
Mike
Please show me something you’re pleased with.
Cheers, the Bear.
I am really pleased with the way this has evolved over the years.
Show me a shot of your whole (or as much as possible) layout.
Well, it’s been over 24 hours. Here’s a Model Power “Mr. & Mrs Diggers” ( I wonder if here maiden name was “Gold”) house kit. Show me another house.
A house in South Greenvale, on a part of my layout that I took apart last year. I have saved the scene for use in the area I am working on now
It takes a village, show me one…
OK… Here is Miller’s Bed and Breakfast in Hopewell Junction. It was a wood kit from some company or other (too lazy to go down cellar and look it up).
Show me a business disctrict in a town on your Layout (or the club).
[edit] Looks like George just beat me to the punch… So show us a Village instead!
