Welcome to this month´s "Show me something" - picture thread!
How it works..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"Participants 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.
The last request was for something cheesy.
This is a pretty cheezy front end loader.
I replaced it with this one. DJ.
Show me construction equipment.
My CG N scale Telescoping Boom Forklift.
Show me something sentimental.

Last year on my birthday my then-nine-year-old daughter said, "Dad, let's go to the train store," where she proceeded to pick out the Southern Pacfic "Rosie the Riveter" boxcar for me:
Very cool, as the Rosie the Riveter National Park is close by in Richmond, CA, and SP is "our" historical line, especially here in the SF Bay Area.
It also fits great on the late 1940's N scale Alameda, CA switching layout she and I built together over the past year.
So everytime I see that boxcar, I think of my "We Can Do It!" daughter.
Show me a guilty pleasure.

Show me a crossbuck with working red blinkers. Or, just a crossbuck.

I'll renew Crandells request for crossbucks with blinking red lights!
Jarrell
Well, the blinking red lights don´t show well, but they are there...
Show me a (working) wig-wag!
This probably is not the type of wig-wag Sir Madog had in mind, but he is working on that hydrant
Since it's snowing on the mid-coast today, show me something white.

Show me something else embarrasing to have on your layout.

Sorry I couldn't resist. Now back to our regular scheduled programming, previous request...

Show me a flat car.
mcfunkymonkey:
That is a really nice story.
Not exactly your standard flat car, but flat enough.
This is an old Roundhouse snow removal unit that was actually pulled in reverse to clear snow away from the sides of the right of way. The wings spread out under load and carved the snow banks away. It would likely have been followed by a rotary snow plough to blow the loosened snow out of the way.
Show me a critter (Darth Santa Fe you are not allowed to post on this one!)
Dave
I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
Here's a couple of 'critters'. Mom-cat is contemplating lunch further down on the mountainside, but the doe will prove to be faster. Back to hunting rabbits for Mom-cat.
Show me some more wildlife.

I have that old Roundhouse 3-in-1 kit too, that thing is called a snow crab. I never finished it when I realized that they were not used in Maine.

Nothing businesslike, not a business car? or a no nonsense loco?

Thanks for reminding me of the proper name for the 'snow crab'. It had slipped my mind (like a lot of other things tend to do).
Here's something powerful. :D
