Lee, Nice pic on the Shay. However this thread is for members to show off their scale model that are not 1:1 scale
Then a request is made.
So the last request was to show another 1st generation switcher.
How about 3!!
Show me a cab unit that is NOT an F unit!
Karl
NCE über alles!
Alantrains It's the 4th page of the "Show Me" thread, but the thread had slipped to page 2 of the "General Discussion" Forum and looked like it would slip further down unless someone posted. cheers

That is why I bumped it with the picture of the blue B&M SW-1 even though it did not match the last request. It was a couple of threads from dropping to page 3 on the General Discussion. Part of the idea of ShowME is to keep the pictures coming quickly. Originally, it was a 2 hour window for something new; this has been relaxed in recent months but we still want to keep it moving, and not fall off General Page 1. So lets see my request for:
Show me another older locomotive in a newer paint scheme
George In Midcoast Maine, 'bout halfway up the Rockland branch
Alan Jones in Sunny Queensland (Oz)
Hi Ken ... I sort "Newest to Oldest" ... (Actually I was talking about page one of General Discussion .... Cheers!

I am on page four. Why would your post have any thing to do with page one?
2-1/2 days and no mixed consists - gotta save it from falling to page 3!!
Would a first generation locomotive in second generation paint almost fit? A first run Walthers SW-1 on late 70s B&M blue - it really existed, I saw a photo

Heres one for you Karl:
Show me a mixed-generation (i.e., 1st & 2nd or 2nd & 3rd) lashup

Thanks again, great resource!!!
Now, back to regular programing.....
Ken's Request is;
Let's see some more odd and/or unique trains
Hey Chad, check out the blog at this link: http://smd.cc/tliw/
It's sort of like an O.Henry-type story about a flatcar like yours, with lots of photos - I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
. . .
Here's something 'unique', you'll rarely find these at a typical RR crossing:
If one of those loaded bottle cars were to derail and spill, there would be one heluva fire!
This one can handle some Bulk!
Please Show Me Something that is Considered an Odd/Unique Piece of Rolling Stock...
superbeLet's see more tank cars
Here are some LPG tankers - the black one [barely visible behind the unloading platform] is being swapped-out for the white one:
Let's see any kind of bulk-transport car(s).
