Not a lot of train, nor much in the way of passengers, but it fits the request...

Please show us another short train (at least one loco and one car).

Long trains are subjective, but I think we can all agree that this is a short train.

Show me another small steam locomotive.

Batman: "Please show me another weird lash-up."

I don't know how weird it is, but here is my autistic grandson's vision of a cool train. He loves steam engines. Any steam engine. Here he has NYC #5335, a Hudson at the head of a double-header with Pere Marquette 2-8-4 #1235 at the head of his mixed freight. 

Another short passenger train please.

Heres a pair! BCCS 9960 and 9961, an EMD F3A and F3B respectively, are seen here idling in a siding on a hot and sunny summer day on my N Scale switching layout.

Lets see some cab units or covered wagons from a manufacturer other than EMD if we can!

This diesel locomotive was built by Wayne Enterprises. This is a scene on the Pasco County Railroad Club's sectional HO scale train show layout.

Show me more diesels, that are non-EMD. Are there any GEs out there?
