Sir Madog This thread has turned into one of my favorite threads in the forum. Unfortunately I cannot contribute much to it, as I have built only 4 modules of my Japanese-themed modular layout. Eager to see more of those fantastic pictures coming ... Wearing my moderator´s hat, I´d like to make a suggestion. This thread is now exceeding 50 pages and becomes a little difficult to handle. Shouldn´t we turn it into a monthly thread - just like Elliot´s Trackside Diner? A fresh start at the beginning of a month would certainly provide a new impetus to it. How about it?

I wouldn't neccesarily be against it, but it seems like I've stopped following the Diner thread because I got tired of chasing the month's location around. I doubt that's it though.

This shanty in the scrap yard is rundown. So is the doghouse for "Dawg", the junk yard dog.

EVERYWHERE LOST; WE HUSTLE OUR CABOOSE FOR YOU
PA1 I think, can't be bothered to walk through to the train room to check.
Show me a run down old structure.
Simon Modelling CB&Q and Wabash See my slowly evolving layout on my picturetrail site http://www.picturetrail.com/simontrains and our videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/MrCrispybake?feature=mhum
Thanks! Learn something all the time here.
The request is for some more PA1s!

jacon12 doctorwayne, before this slowly dies please define 'house car'. Google and Wikipedia turned up 0. Jarrell

According to my source "House cars is a term used by railcar builders and the publication Association of American Railroads that broadly captures boxcars, refrigerator and stock cars, as well as other rolling stock of this general shape and construction." My source is Doyle's Standard Catalog of American Flyer Trains. Thus I present to you a whole bunch of housecars, some with doors open.
Let's see some more PA1s, please.
I have figured out what is wrong with my brain! On the left side nothing works right, and on the right side there is nothing left!
Sorry, Jarrell, that's an older term for an enclosed freight car. Examples would be boxcar, reefer, stockcar, boarding or tool car from a work train, even, I suppose, enclosed autoracks.

EDIT: I googled "railroad house car" and came up with this one (about three pages in)
A New House Car
doctorwayne Show me a house car with an open door.
Show me a house car with an open door.
My first beer was an Old German, therefore my affection for this car.
Let's see a train room before any construction
Bob
Don't Ever Give Up
Show me something from Wabash
The Grand Valley's "Rockhaven", a shortened Athearn observation car:
Show me a white freight car.
Two requests in one:
Cute and little, not really an engine, but it has an engine:
It's G scale so it is a big house
Show me a business car
Matt from Anaheim, CA and Bayfield, COClick Here for my model train photo website
Gee Art, all I asked for was 10 minutes.
I hate Rust
Here you go!
Show me a Manson or a real big house.
Ken
Paperwork. This is all paper from my computer to build a promotional sign for our Division table at train shows.
Show me a cute little engine
Give me 10 minutes, then I should have the needed paper work. Warming up the scanner!
Ok, no railroad paper work. leighant:, care to request something else?
Time, as near as I can tell, was about up on the request. It did not look like we were going to get the ship part of it. I'm surprised no one snuck in a rowboat! So, in light of it all we'll let the computer generated ship pass if no one has a serious objection.
Ok, the request is for 'railroad paperwork'.
leighant It probly ain't not fair. This is not a model OR a prototype, but a computer rendering of a scene from my 3-D mathematical model to visualize the layout I am building. Show me something related to railroad paperwork.

One of The Steel Company of Canada's 80 tonners:
Show me a passenger train and a ship.
OK, got one.
Taken a few years back when I just started the mining section.
OK, now a 80 tonner.
We are waiting for a bottle brush tree.
Not sure we are supposed to show proto photos? But I di like the play with the 1/1/scale trains. here is me standing at the cab door of our 80 tonner:
Show me a model 80 tonner.
[edit] That will teach me to walk away from the computer too quick.... Guess we are looking for a "bottle brush" tree.
Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO
We'll get there sooner or later!
Ken beat me to it, as he usually does. His Cuda was always faster than my Golden Commando. And besides, I didn't have a dead tree. That' me in the Yellowstone in Duluth.
Still after a bottle brush tree. I have a million, but not very good ones..
Dead evergreen just to the left of the hand rails. DJ.
Show me your best "bottle brush" evergreen tree.
That me in the Big Boy in St Louis
Show me a fallen tree, if you don't have one, a dead tree. (not on a lumber car)
The guys in the roundhouse keep the workbench on the back wall pretty clean. The Playmate pictures above, on the other hand, are a trifle naughty.
Show me a picture of YOU in a locomotive cab, or at least standing by a locomotive.
It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.
It's looking pretty neat in the picture.
Let's see an organized one or if youhave one more messed up show it
Happy Railroading
