 From the Jeremy Project.

 Sometime ago a coworker wanted to get into trains and I requested here on the site for second train gear. I was shocked by how many helped getting Jeremy started. These are a few of the items sent.

 Show me F something dragging coal.

Awesome, but Cuda beat you too it, so we're looking for F units and coal trains. I should have one, somewhere.

I had to look this one up. 

Apparently, that would be an SD40T-2 or SD45T-2 locomotive.

jacon12, the OP, is right.  This is turning into Stump The Forum.  LOL

 OK, a simple one. Show me some track with buildings and trees in the picture.

I was about to post this shot when I read Morgan said he could find F's with a coal train.At least that's what I though he meant ("I should should have one somewhere")

I'll post anyhow because it has tracks, trees, and part of a building. This has the coal train.

Please show photos of a large Eastern railroad between 1950 and 1975.  (PRR, NYC, B&O, etc.)

Here is an oild picture of mine showing Miller Milling and next door New World Pasta. These are real life companies. Miller grinds the four and pipes it to New World Pasta and sells the rest. This is a prototype operation but not the buildings.

The closest I can get to an open-face mine is the abandoned "Malakoff Diggins'"--remnants of 1870's hydraulic gold mining in the Sierra Nevada.   Hydraulic mining was outlawed in the 1880's, but the scars are still there.

The "Last Kiss" diorama has a burned out roof in the depot. I don't think the first view has been used here before though  the second pic shows the roof better.

show me a train pic with a family member in it.

Sorry, wasn't trying to stump anyone. I just took the term 'tunnel motor' for granted being that I'm a SP/DRGW fan. Oh well it wasn't even my turn to ask for anything! Tongue Tied

You ask, and I'll try to deliver. Here's two of my SD40T-2's, my favorite prototype locomotive. 

Now how about a commute train?

How about a Yellowstone instead, until someone can come up with a Big Boy?
