More F(or E) units please. 

Here's an EMD F3A Custom painted for the B&CCS

How about some Custom painted Cowl Units?

Check out the Balfour and Colucci Creek Southern Railroad, my proto-freelanced N scale model railroad, at bccsrailroad.weebly.com or on Youtube on my channel, N Scale Train Boy.

It's a little stylized but it is a cat!

Show me another animal in the artwork!

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!

Show Me Something - August 2018
Posted by SeeYou190 on Wednesday, August 1, 2018 8:12 AM

Welcome to the August , 2018

"Show Me Something"

audience participation thread!

 


How exciting... I get to start the August edition of the mosty fun thread on the forum!

This is a place where forum members can post their photos containing a view of a "requested" scene or object.

If you show the scene requested you can then make a request of your own or choose to stay with the current request.

Your photos should be of models only, not a "real-life" scene. After 24 hours, if the requested scene has not been posted, anyone is welcome to make their own submission and then make the next request of their choosing. 

If no request was made by a contributor, the prior request is still in effect.  

I will start us off this month with a picture of one of my favorite boxcars that gets seen on STRATTON & GILLETTE rails from time to time. This is a basic forty foot boxcar lettered for the FRONT RANGE & WESTERN. This was one of the first HO scale boxcars I painted using a set of decals I was given in a decal swap. The herald was a bit too big so I cut out the ram and made him coming out of the black line in the striping. 

.

As always you can click on the image for a larger view.

.

Please show me another boxcar with an animal in the artwork.
