Only a few more hours until it´s November. Time to open up a new thread of “Show me something…”
The last request was for more night shots.
Looking forward to those fantastic pictures!
show me ore cars
Got some of Randgust’s V&T ore cars on the dock next to the 20ton hoppers:
Show me a wood-burning loco!
A mill switcher has shoved three ore cars onto the high line to delvier ore to the blast furnace. Some coke cars are on the next track.
DJ (Grampy) requested something to make him laugh. So, please post a photo to make him laugh.
For D.J. [:D]
and now back to a night scene.
Jarrell
Sorry to interupt this thread but what are the rules for posting in the show me something threads? I heard something about a time limit but didn’t catch the specifics.
Sorry, I don’t have a night scene so keep it going, but if someone could show me a small pine mountian sawmill serviced by a railroad I’d like to see it. .[:D]
Why not state the rules in the first posting of the month?
How it works…
In this thread a person asks to see something, related to model railroading of course, and the first person to respond by posting a picture that contains what the person asks for then immediately says “Show Me Something”…
That person can ask to see, for example, a certain color… or a shape such as something round or square. They could ask to see something patriotic, or something angry or happy or sad. They may ask to see something educational or inspiring or scary. The request should be one word, such as “Show Me Something Humorous”
Particpants in the thread should give others a chance to join in. For instance, let several requests/replies go by before jumping back in after you’ve participated UNLESS the thread drops off the first or second page and you’d like to bring it back. In that case it would be fine to answer again.
Please…, NO LINKS to a picture on another website somewhere. The answer MUST be posted in your reply. If a participant does that it should be ignored and another person can reply.
There may be times when two or more people reply at the same time. Any reply should be done to the FIRST person.
Edit;
1 Hour Rule
Guys, we’re going to have to institute a time limit on replies to a request to keep things from bogging down . From this point on if there as been no reply to a request within 1 hour of it being made the person making the request has to make another. If not, and we all have lives to lead and can’t be here 24/7… it’s anybodies turn. I have a feeling that is what’s happening, a person makes a request and has to leave for whatever reason, no reply is given and the thread, as I said, bogs down.
Duplicate requests
It is perfectly fine to request something that has already been asked for, eg. anyone can request a turntable shot even though it was requested earlier. Hopefully the person that replied to the earlier request won’t an
Here is a night shot from me.
Show me, How about a night show in early evening or morning?
Thanks, Jarrell, that shot definitely made me laugh.

Can I have an exception? Please?
Here is a set going NW in the evening twilight, or SE in the morning rise… However it strikes ya…!
Well, either way, I’ll be happy to honor the previous request; (I’ve seen some that are worth putting up again!) [DJ: Love those Shadows!!! -Excellent! Crandell: Love your shot, with the bounce light on the lower water tower!!! -Tremendous! Great work by everyone, as well!!! ]
