It has been more than a day, and no replies. This is a bit of  a stretch, but here goes:

Heartland Division CB&Q
Please show any BNSF predecessor road (CB&Q, ATSF, GN, NP, SP&S, Frisco, or BN)  

First, the real one... (on the Wheeling & Lake Erie, of all places!)

And the model...

Let's have more BNSF predecessor roads!

Please show me something "borrowed"

New York Central "borrowed" some C&NW bi-levels? That's a stretch—but that's why we enjoy this hobby so much!

Show me more borrowed, loaned or shared equipment...

Burlington Northern’s loss is Santa Fe’s gain. This old BN spreader clears a mountain pass in California.

Please show me something "borrowed"

Well, A C&O in Canada so it's only fair that we show a Canadian car in Virginia.

 

Please show another something else lost,

Show me something else that is "lost".

I third the suggestion....  Unfortunately, the "rules" don't seem to be posted at the beginning of the thread anymore, and I fear some may just not get the idea of how the thread works....  I believe the last request was for anything with coal, so...

Lots of coal in the coaling tower in Hopewell Junction.

Show me any refueling facility.

I suggest a minor rule change to speed things up. If somebody does not make a new request, the previous request is still in effect.

I second this. Cool

Another dome car.  I made this GN dome car from a Bachmann car before Walthers produced its GN Empire Builder train. 

 

Now .... Please show one or more passenger cars
