I could see my friends getting ahold of that and taking the idea way to far. Turning our yards into WWI battle fields!

I think someone else has a cupple "armored" railcars too. It looks good but wouldn't the guns stab into the car ahead on grades and turns? You gotta get a 4-6-2 and clear out room for a head gun. can't wait to see what else you come up with.
