OK, this is a legitimate one-of-a-kind STRATTON AND GILLETTE boxcar. I created this special paint scheme and donated this car to the Model Railroader staff hoping it might find a home on the MILWAUKEE RACINE AND TROY layout.

I will subscribe to Model Railroader for the rest of my life hoping to see this boxcar in a picture of the MR&T layout!

Please show another one-of-a-kind freight car paint scheme.

.

This is the only freight car owned by the DOWN SOUTH AND BACK that was painted black. This car was badly damaged, and in the repair shop all they had was black paint, so it received black sides, but the roof and ends were left boxcar red. The lettering is standard to the rest of the cars in this series.

Here is a set of Stewart F (ABBA) which I added decoders and some minor detailing.  Have to say, these locos run really well!

 

How about a few more passenger locos?

ENJOY  !

GP7 MEC 572 has a steam generator in the short hood; it is a passenger diesel. I custom painted it and added the s/g detail parts

Show me another passenger diesel

So how about showing me some unusual flat car loads?

This might not be that unusual, especially if you model 1944, but here are a bunch of Sherman Tanks. This scene was on Mr. Muffin's Lionel Layout in Atlanta, Indiana.
