Snake Eye Bennett uses one as a storage bin for scrap metal.
Snake Eye's business was named after a real character in the small town where I grew up. He owned a parrot that knew more huh... colorful words than the average sailor. In good weather the bird stayed in a large cage on the front porch and would give pedestrians an earful as they came down the sidewalk.
Show me your oldest tank car.
I found these Athearn BB 3-dome tank cars at a train show a few years ago. The price on the box end was $2.35, so that probably dates them sometime in the 1950s. I fixed them up a bit with Kadees, metal wheels, a bit more weight and placards
Show me another old piece of rolling stock, locomotive or building
This is an old piece of rolling stock OR building. Ambiguity intended. I bought it as one of the rare old-style craftsman kits mftd for N scale about 1975. It came with decal for ICG "split rail" supergraphic, not at all appropriate for this old wood car OR for my 1957-era layout. Looked and looked for a prototype and a decal.
Ended up using it as a retired railcar in service as storage shed at a creosote treating yard on my "old layout."
So.... show me. your "old layout."
Here is the first monastic layout of the LION. It was called the Eastern South-west North Dakota Central Railroad, serving the middle of nowhere.
Show me some of your primitave work

Show me something MOW
Well, I like that!
Yikes, our nice thread needs to be bumped back up to the top.
OK, *here* is an MOW train (The signal dolly, actually) and as you can see, we are doing actual work on the ROW.
Now show me a blue light. If you cannot find a blue light, I'll take two yellow ones.
