Thanks for posting these. Then sending them to me. :)

My module group seemed excited.

Thanks very much for the info on the containers. Went there and printed them right off and saved to favorites so as to go back again and do more if needed. I printed on white card stock and they look really good. I am building a wall unit railroad and want some containers for the trains and the yard where they will be shipped from. Look really good and nice and clean. Can not wait to get them together and use.
Thanks rails99@pacbell.net

SilverSpike, I don't get the translate option when I try this. Do you have a special language plug-in?

Yes, with XP and more recent versions of MS office there are options to install Language Tools. It may also be available for download from the Microsoft site as well, automatic update should have a selection for IE language code that can be installed. You may also be able to invoke a translation from a google search, there is a Language Tools button that can be utilized.

I used Corel Draw 8 made the paper 8.5"X11" put it as wide length so its 11"x8.5" moved the trailrs around and got both containers on it. Also works with adobe Illustrator. Thanks to ever one who sent these links.

RE: http://home.wanadoo.nl/schatborn/

Anybody know what era these truck trailers are from? I'm modeling the early 50s and these appear to be too modern for my layout but I'm not sure. They look really good.

Opinions?
