There seems to be a lot of the same thing going around, although this shot was taken on the SLOW about 5 months ago when I ran a train for the first time in a couple years....

Maybe I should post this in Kevin's Holloween thread!

It would have been just fine there!

We need to watch our for spiders making attacks on our trains. In 1:87 scale spiders can be horrifying, especially if ridden by goblins!

Happy Halloween!

Rick, I have never seen a steel plug door car with a fishbelly underframe before... pretty neat.

Kevin, thanks for the comment, this is the third one of these cars that I have done, when getting the supplies for this project I ordered the Fishbelly underframe kit from Accurail and glued the whole thing together not knowing it was about 2 scale feet narrower than the underframe for the RBL, I managed to get the fishbelly parts off the underframe before the glue set up fully and cut a slit in the regular underframe with my Dremel for the Fishbelly sides to fit into, luckily it all came out okay.

Casey, nice scenes of your beautiful steam power.

Garry, great work on the Fine Scale Kit, I hope the ones I have come out as well as yours did.

Jimmy, that SD40-2 looks really good.

Mike, a mystery project, seems like a Haloween thing to me.

Bear, nice to hear from you, keep up the new work, but where is my car ferry?

Rule 1: This is my railroad.

Rule 2: I make the rules.

Rule 3: Illuminating discussion of prototype history, equipment and operating practices is always welcome, but in the event of visitor-perceived anacronisms, detail descrepancies or operating errors, consult RULE 1!
