Hahaha no, my flatcars carry trailers, tractors, machinery loads, packaged crates, and sometimes vehicles.
But that was funny!
I like the pencil idea. That end pressing it's way out is very convincing as an eraser.
And that potato! OMG! how much sour cream would you need?! Just imagine the amount of carbs in that baby!

Yep I see that Mike, the Eraser punching through the plastic from the number 2 pencil.
Apparently Henry didn't have these large pencils sharpened or the graphite tips would be poking through

So what city lays claim to the largest pencil?
Duncan B.C. has the worlds largest hockey stick. I often thought it should be moved by train on my layout.

It has the color of pencils or bananas but I believe that is flexable plastic water pipe.

Aren't water pipes blue? Sewage yellow or black?

It's gas piping, for underground natural gas service. We know what it is, we're just playin around with it.
Back to having fun, please.

Ah, gas pipes. I knew I saw it on a construction site recently. Good thing I'm not a plumber.
How about a giant peanut?

It's out of the bag. Casey Illinois. Isn't that ironic, you know, Casey Jones. 32.5 ft. and it appears to me the Eraser has been used. Must have been a really big mistake
Whoops, found the copyright at the bottom of the page. You can just look it up for yourself.
Ashrita Furman holds the Guinness World Book record for the largest pencil. 65 ft long and 21000 pounds. 8000 board feet of lumber, 4500 pounds of graphite and a 250-pound eraser.
It took a bunch of guys from 15 countries to manufacture it in 2 weeks out of the same materials a regular pencils is made from. It was unveiled in New York City. Go check it out. If anyone needs a 10 1/2 ton pencil, they have one.
