Hank, the hapless monkey mechanic at Mt. Coffin, finally got his DT's to stop shaking enough to finish this beast of a boxcab out of cast-off parts in the home shops:
Hank was hurting from all the effort he put in, but his diesel-driven donkey was able to make a relief run & bring back much needed medicine:
Not bad for an N-sane little mechanic ;)
Show me the loco or car with the most "character" (and, of course, the story behind it)!

Move on to another request. Please show your most recently acquired locomotive. Feel free to tell about it, too.

howmusShow me an ash pit.
Well...this isn't exactly what Ray asked for, but with a little grammatical hairsplitting this could sorta be called an "ash" pit - it's where they dump hot cinders leftover from the steelmaking process. I've been waiting for a chance to post something in this thread again, so I'm seizing this opportunity:
...now show us a real ash pit [in a steam loco terminal]
-Ken in Maryland (B&O modeler, former CSX modeler)
OK..... I'll put a shot of mine up (I was waiting because I already had a photo on the page).
Show me an ash pit.

We'll get there sooner or later!
No coaling tower. Here is an other diesel fueling area.
Coaling tower still needed.

a lumber yard at my Hon3 module Salina
Show me another small industry
No power plant
Show me any small industry.
Since there are no yard workers, here is a working yard.
There are some of the yard crew at the engine shed and fueling area, top left.
Show me a power plant.
Steps from yard to town. DJ.
Show me yard workers.
One these guys is the fireman. There is an offset gap in the back fence which visually shields mainstream automobile-transported customers from a view of the tracks behind Lumberjack Cookhouse, but allows train crews easy access for lunch.
Show me something that indicates care and consideration for your train crews.
I think I posted this one, probably to the same request, last month some time.
Show me a fireman.

It is that contagious!!!!
The last request is show me your signals.
Edit! Passengers
Signals??? It's 1925 downstairs on the SLOW so the fanciest Signal I have is semaphore....
Show me passengers.
A couple of times, in the WPF threads, I've caught myself looking for the Show ME request after a posted picture.
Cheap Show Me....Some me something that helps tie a scene together-- that you acquired for $15 or under.
The Signals on the Route of the Broadway LION. You cannot model a credible subway without hundreds of them. Total cost, about 50¢ each. Time to make, about 15 minutes each.
So show me your signals.

Here there be cats. LIONS with CAMERAS
Palm trees in front of the admiral's administration headquarters building "aboard" (Navyspeak) the U S Naval Air Station Tidelands (Lighter than Air), a blimp base. The on-base line for rail deliveries is known as the Lighter Than Air Railroad of course.
Building kitbashed from 3 Model Power "Grandma's Old Farm House" kits, as explained in this weekend's Philosophy Friday kitbashing thread.
Palm trees were part of a 100 palm trees for $15 deal. I think they were originally marketed for party favors or cake decorations. Not great individually but the cheap price allows doing effects in mass.
Just like the prototype, Rock Island has timed out

Let's make a try again for something tropical with palm trees

Anything is possible if you do not know what you are talking about.
Does this count?
This is my first post in this thread. I am never fast enough to get a picture in.

How about something Great Northern?

Here is a Baldwin switcher picking up loads of structural steel from the steel mill.
Please show a farm or ranch scene.
I think this is a pretty good use of an excavator: loading slag.
The tank in the lower right of the scene is a reused life-like tank car as well.
Show me car that carries steel.
rock scenery in progress.....
Show me a GREAT use of a model vehicle that's part of a scene in your layout..........

No scratch built boxcars, I guess. Wolfgang, I do have a nice place to store your little criiter that is scratch built:
And very heavily detailed as well...
Show me something "in progress".
A scratch built 25-ton, witth sound and light
Show me a scratch built box car.
It's been a while since the rules for Show Me Something were posted, thus we have some folks who probably are not aware of them. That's very understandable and my error for not including them when the new month was started. I apologize for that.
In this thread a person asks to see something, related to model railroading of course, and the first person to respond by posting a picture that contains what the person asks for then immediately says "Show Me Something".................. That person can ask to see, for example, a certain color.. or a shape such as something round or square. They could ask to see something patriotic, or something angry or happy or sad. They may ask to see something educational or inspiring or scary. The request should be one word, such as "Show Me Something Humorous"Particpants in the thread should give others a chance to join in. For instance, let several requests/replies go by before jumping back in after you've participated UNLESS the thread drops off the first or second page and you'd like to bring it back. In that case it would be fine to answer again.Please..., NO LINKS to a picture on another website somewhere. The answer MUST be posted in your reply. If a participant does that it should be ignored and another person can reply. There may be times when two or more people reply at the same time. Any reply should be done to the FIRST person.Edit; 1 Hour RuleGuys, we're going to have to institute a time limit on replies to a request to keep things from bogging down . From this point on if there as been no reply to a request within 1 hour of it being made the person making the request has to make another. If not, and we all have lives to lead and can't be here 24/7.... it's anybodies turn. I have a feeling that is what's happening, a person makes a request and has to leave for whatever reason, no reply is given and the thread, as I said, bogs down.Duplicate requests It is perfectly fine to request something that has already been asked for, eg. anyone can request a turntable shot even though it was requested earlier. Hopefully the person that replied to the earlier request won't answer thus giving someone else a chance. Of course it would be ideal not to have duplicates but there are a lot of different turntable shots out there we haven't seen.
