Jarrell's Show Me Something (6 - 24)
Posted by Track fiddler on Wednesday, June 19, 2024 10:52 PM

Hello Rail Fans.  Perhaps as the site's been jacked for quite awhile, some things got swept under the rug.  Kinda heart breaking, as WPF falling by the wayside in low participant numbers as well. 

Not On My Watch!  Now that the site's somewhat working more consistant, maybe it's time to get things "Alive & Kicking" again! 

So brush off the cobwebs, and don't feel too bad about things, none of this BS has been any participating club members fault.

Carry onYes

Good on ya for bringing this out of mothballs TF.

Does a TT bridge count?

So much for over, show me under.

Please show me a tunnel.

Of course a turntable counts Brent.

Definition Bridge:  An overpass structure, facilitating mobilization from point A to point B, over a gully, canyon, valley, ravine, river, roadway, shallow well, deep pit, or scary holeLaugh...Wink

 

Must going to be a tunnel under there somewhereIndifferent

 

Continue Brent's request with a tunnel please.

I’m not sure a work in progress pipe load will satisfy Peters request…

More tank cars, please.

Yes, more tank cars.

Besides fuel, locomotives need lots of crankcase lube:

Good grief, what the heck does one do with this one Ed?  Minnesota of Wisconsin cars or something like that?

You dudes keep toying with my lack of Common SenseDots - Sign

 

 

Please continue with Ed's request, or post a bridge before the end of the month pleaseWink

Didn't mean to get too obtuse, TF. M-of-W being maintenance of way so any track gang or railroad repair type car would do.

 Track_Crew-a by Edmund, on Flickr

Similarly, a railroad service car such as the lube-oil tank car or perhaps a car for transporting sand or stockroom supplies would be in 'Company service' and would usually have some designation stenciled on the car.

A Scale Test Car would fall into the category of a company service car:

Let's see that bridge now Smile
