I believe the last request was for trucks and trains.... The flatbed has arrived to switch out the ash and cinders from the ash pit in Hopewell Junction.
How about trains and cars as in automobiles...

Here is my Bachmann doodlebug which I repowered with a NWSL power truck. Runs very well now.
Please show a locomotive which has been one or more of the following: re-powered, upgraded, detailed, or modified.

I guess this Kato SD38-2 fits that description, it started as a CN&W unit. Before stripping and repainting it in the CSX YN2 scheme, I relocated the headlight from between the number boards to the nose, substituted the factory horn with a K5LA, and added the bell near the radiator grille.
Let's see another modified or repainted loco.
Here is an oldie but goodie, U-18B MEC 404 "Kenneth Roberts". No, it's not Intermountain, it's an undecorsted Athearn Blue box kit that was modified to a U-18 by Chucks Chop Shop about 20 years ago. I detailed and painted it.
Show me more modified / painted locos
George In Midcoast Maine, 'bout halfway up the Rockland branch

Max Magliaro re-powered the locomotive with a Faulhaber 1319 coreless motor and replaced the gearing.
I repainted it into Pennsy colors.

Show me something humorous!

Train wrecks usually aren't funny, but this one during the height of an open house was. You will note the culprit here is that B&O passenger run by "yours truely". Ran into the leading freight and caused all the mess, the B&M RDC's careened off the crossings into scenery. No one was hurt! A big Oops for me, following to close, not watching a block in front and not calling out (radio) to dispatcher as it happened.
Show me another embarrasing moment or wreck

22 hours for a wreck or embarrasing moment and no takers.
Show me something you bought at a 'train show' and what did you pay for it? :)
I bought this I1sa at Timonium for $100.
Show me a freight or passenger car you bought at a train show.
Here are a few:
Athearn BB hopper that I stripped, painted and decalled
I needed some more MEC cabooses, and found these Roco ones at a good price. Stripped, removed ribs and other un-needed details, added paint and decals.
I found these 2 Athearn BB Mobilgas 3 dome tanks at a show. They had the original price sticker on them $2.85; I paid a bit more than that. No external changes, just added weight, plackards, Kadees and metal wheels.
Show me more train show deals.
Atlas 33000Gal B/A tank cars. There were six #s in the series and I had five of them. Couldn't find the last number I was looking for anywhere as it was well past the release date that I started collecting this series. One day at a trainshow there it was, the right number and at a firesale price on the clearance table, brand new in the box.
Show me something you have every car number of in the series.

"All of the world's problems are the result of the difference between how we think and how the world works."
I'm not sure who made them but I have a bunch of these NKP 3-bay hoppers. No's 80090 thru 80098 all with metal wheels and Kadee couplers. I bought them at a train show for $4.00 each.
Show me a Pennsy cabin car.
Its been more than a day and still no Pennsy Cabin Car!
In that case I'll amend my request to any Eastern Road Caboose.
Here's a cabin car being shoved onto the service track.
Show me your oldest auto or truck.
How about Mr. Fisher's old Model T Ford?
Show me a picnic.
A birthday party picnic is being held at the county park.
Please show a gas station
24 hours and still no gas station? People must be very busy this weekend!
Here's the closest thing to a gas station I could find in my archives: An abandoned Exxon station (visible toward the lower left) in a derelict industrial neighborhood.
Never mind, show anything to keep this thread alive...!
