Nobody posted the requested construction equipment from the last day of May.

Let's broaden the request. 

Please show any equipment....... Farm, mining, construction, railroad, or whatever.

I really got to like the RailAmerica scheme, and the GWI scheme is only a distant second, in my opinion:

Show me something from RailAmerica, GWI, or other short line group like Salzberg, etc.

Here we see Nickel Plate No.5 has just arrived with PA-1 #187 in the lead while No. 6 is boarding for Cleveland, Buffalo and then on to Hoboken via the Lackawanna.

One of the new passenger equipped GP-9s, 483, waits to switch No.5 on the left.

Show me some Erie, or Lackawanna, or Erie-Lackawanna equipment.

Well, someone has to get the show on the road. 

I painted this coaling tower and nerver noticed the "holidays" until I took the picture. The missed places don't show from normal viewing and since it is glued in place I just left it.

Please Show Me one of your goofs that you didn't correct

PRR K4s #1361 was built in 1917 and was one of two preserved. Therefore she was around in 1925.

Show me a brass engine.

A very early one from one of the lesser-known producers in the 1960s. I'd have to track down the box to say which. I got it around 30 years ago with this very good paint job.

 

Show me something built from a wood and metal craftsman kit.

Eerie? Sure. My whole layout will be a bit eerie, as this is its centerpiece...

Sorry it took days to reply, but I've been feeling a bit psycho.

Now, show me something worth Reading and Ramble on.
