Thanks to Tom for his recommendation of the Bobber Caboose, it's the perfect addition for us. This forum is a great resource for all of us.

Here's a Atlas SF switcher pulling some new tank cars



And a close up of the K Line Aluminum tank cars ..they are great looking cars



Happy railroading...Tim

zwbob--

That coaling station scene is wonderful, way to go! Was that a kit you might have talked about earlier? Great use of landscaping material also.

Tim--good looking tank cars, what's going on underneath that bridge? Is that another working level?

Great job ZW on coaling tower. Got three to do. Gives me ideas. Frank 53, and you talk about me!!!!!!![;)] Looks like you are not too far along either. Got a picture of a switcher [little bugger] from Denver I'll post in a little while.

[zwbob]

jon & chief - Thank you. It is a lionel kit from about 10 years ago, maybe more. The sign I put on the front reads L&E Coal Co. The L&E are my daughters initials. The dump trucks are tootsietoys
