Sorry, I was thinking car as boxcar, tank car, etc.

So let's go for "a classic muscle car"

Here's a Baldwin 10-Wheeler. It's a model of a locomotive from the Hampton and Branchville railroad here in South Carolina.

Show me a classic muscle car on your layout.

ALCO RS-11s MEC 801 and 802

Also a Baldwin, but SD Warren #1 does not count in ShowMe because it's a prototype photo. Baldwin was known for big stuff, but they also made small, like this 2 ft gauge industrial locomotive. Photo taken around 1900

SHow me something Baldwin, steam or diesel

How about some six-axle EMD power

That Ex-SCL E-8 in Amtrak paint qualifies as a six-axle EMD. Yes?

Let's see something from Baldwin or Alco...

It's been a while and no railroad along a river. Here's a railroad crossing a river on my John Galt Line porta layout (hence the blue-green Readon Metal rails on the inner loop).

Since it was the inspiration for the railroad in the novel that inspired the layout, show me some Great Northern.

It has been almost a day so I will jump back in with a couple of bridges I scratch built in Greenvale Village on my layout. Still a lot of work to do to  complete the scene.

Show me a railroad running by the ocean or a river
