I know there was a topic about this recently, but I couldn’t find it. I’m looking for the website that contains different GIF images that can be strung together to make a train for my signature - similar to what ac4400fan has, for example.
I already know how to insert them, but first I need to know where to get the originals. Thanx in advance…
Here they are:

That should get you started.
Google the term “railroad gif” and/or “train gif” and you’ll get a ton.
I got 993,000 for "railroad gif. And 10,200,000 for “train gif”
You should be able to find something, eh?
Thanx Ryan — just what the doctor ordered![tup]
Always here to help when I can! [:D]
Hey, this is my 2500th post[:D][B)][8)]
How do you insert the gifs? I tried copying and pasting from frograil but it wouldn’t work.
You save it, then host it on imageshack, phototbucket, or whatever you use. It’s like posting a pic.
Ok.
Great source for more gifs!
Congratulations on the 2,500th…
So I finally got a Train Gif of my own. Since, of course, nobody makes GIFs of my freelanced commuter line I decided to make my own. I started with a Rock Island F7A and a set of Rock Island smooth side commuter cars from Frograil, then using Photoshop (although I believe something like Microsoft Paint would work just as well) I repainted the consist, detailed it with some of the spoting features that I use on my own line, and then built the train. The whole process only took about a half-hour. Haha, fastest repainting job I’ve ever done!
If anyone has any questions on how do repaint the GIFs just ask.
Cheers!

The site is in my signature.
Ken, could you remove one of those hoppers. It makes the screen too wide.
Done Sorry about that…[B)]
Train gifs are cool.
I got mine, where’s yours?
