Thanks Bob, I'm glad it's taken on a life of it's own!

Grampy says Show me an ABBA lashup.

Jarrell,

Thanks for initiating " Show me something".

It's success speaks for itself !!

I've only been on the forum for over four years but this is the first time I've seen a thread locked because it was so popular. You may have the record of being the only poster to have done so.

CONGRATULATIONS and thanks.

Happy Railroading

Train crew's back alley cut-through to Lumberjack Cookhouse.

Another of my crazy "show me's."  There's an old ditty-

"Railroad Crossing, Look out for the cars!

Can you spell that. Without any R's?"

Show me something on your layout you can spell without any R's.

Here's the Strumpet Brewery in Moose Bay, from the track side:

This is a background building, barely an inch thick, but it's on the aisle so I did the interior as a "sliced-off" building for people to see from the back of the layout.  There's a subway station right below it.

Show me a caboose with marker lights.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

I'll bite.  Here's some of my earliest work, a 4x6 N scale layout circa 1977 or so.

Show me your earliest work...

One of the first of the breed!

 

Show me something obscure that you have been waiting over a month to post but no one has asked for it yet.

Well, it's been over four hours since the original request for "white water rafters".   As you can see, an aerial search of the area found no sign of the hapless adventurers:
