gmpullmanBack to open-top loads. Cheers, Ed
Here's some pipe on a Tichy flatcar...
...and in a Tyco gondola...
...but I still need to add some wedges to the blocking for all of these cars. There are three such flatcars and two gondolas - all loads are removeable.

More cars with visible loads, please.
HO-VeloLovin' that boiler Ed, takes me back to my boilermaker helper days and 'rolling the tubes', took a bad 'greenhorn' spin on the big air motor one night
That must have been a fun ride, Peter! I've done (helper) a little tube expanding myself. Real bullwork.
Here's a neat look at what makes a locomotive boiler tick:

Another pole please.
Thanks, Peter. The friend for whom I built it seems pretty happy with it, too.
You forgot to ask for something to be shown, so I'll simply carry on with the railroad-related signs.Here are a few, including this "Resume Speed" sign with limits for passenger and freight trains...
...a warning sign for plows and flangers to lift the flanger plow and retract wing plow blades. It also applies to spreaders and weed sprayer cars...
This one signals that the restrictions noted on previous signs have been "Cleared", with no more until another warning sign is seen...
...and this one just lets you know owns the area...
Show us some poles, please - power poles, telegraph poles, flag poles, even some actual Poles.

Heartland Division CB&QPlease show a former basket case locomotive that has been restored.
Not quite "basket-case" but a 1962-era LMB model with appliances that, by today's standards, are a bit crude. Take a look at the headlight bulb, for instance.

I replaced the motor and many of the soldered-on details. Happy with the results

Show me another restored or before/after look at rolling stock or locomotives.
Here is a Bowser PRR T-1 I no longer own. When I acquired it, it was a basket case. I purchased replacement parts and detail parts from Bowser. It was a very heavy locomotive, and with two motors, it could pull very long trains.
Please show a former basket case locomotive that has been restored.
