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!

Any more early TOFC examples out there?

Here are some Flexi-Van cars being switched:

Flexi-Van flats had high speed trucks and steam and signal lines for use in passenger trains for hauling mail and express.

Any more TOFC, container cars?

Well, the Illinois Central dabbled a bit in TOFC in the earlier years, and here is my example.  Guess the riggers have not yet gotten to this car as of yet.  

Any more early TOFC examples out there?

Another large industry, please.

Size can be relative I guess. The Omar Iron Works is the largest industry on the Country Roads portable model layout.

Show me a scene with any type of boat or water craft.
