This may fly (or not) I have been on hold all day with one agency or another dealing with this Estate I am looking after. Surfing merchandise for sales while I wait has me going stir crazy.
Name the manufacturer of a product and if correct post a photo of something else. To avoid delays in the game, if three two people agree on what something is the winner can post away without the original poster giving the okay.
No cheating by looking or running photo search/inspect info.
Here is my first pic, who makes it?
Brent

"One difference between pessimists and optimists is that while pessimists are more often right, optimists have far more fun."
Is this a bored game or a board game?
Atlas...?

Alas, a guess!....... Nyet. Sorry Crandell.

This is so great! This thread is going just as I had hoped or expected, take your pick.
I'm going to guess Peco on the track
BATMAN This is so great! This thread is going just as I had hoped or expected, take your pick.
If you are nothing else, Brent, you are a good sport.

Sorry Bear, nothin Italian about that track.
I use some Atlas code 83 and Shinohara. Don't look like either one of those so I'm going to guess —
Peco?
Not so bored but like to have fun!
Hey, speaking of games. Maybe we could resurrect TF's "I spy" thread. Remember that? Could possibly combine the two?
Cheers, Ed

I thought you would be all over this one Ed, not Peco, sorry.
The I spy game would work and maybe draw more viewers.
Holmes, what brand of track might this be?
Watson, my dear friend, let us summarize what we know! We can rule out Atlas, as well as Peco being the responsible manufacturer of this piece of evidence. This leaves us with Micro Engineering or this new chap in the market, Jason Shron. I think the most important clue we have got, is the fact that Brent, aka Batman, is from Canada. So is Jason. I conlude that the track is Rapido´s Bendy Track!
By Jove, Holmes, you´ve got it!
DING!...DING!...DING!...DING!... Rapido Bendy Track it is. Good sleuthing Ulrich.
Please post something (not too difficult) so these homebodies will not get too restless.

Sorry for the delay, but it I needed to get a little bit of sleep.
So, guys, tell me what this is!
Hi Ulrich,
It is a card connector for a Tortoise switch machine. It even has the proper alignment tabs on either end to make sure it makes proper contact with the traces on the Tortoise circuit board.

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!

How about something more difficult?
Tinplate ToddlerHow about something more difficult?
I'm not sure if this will be difficult or not, but it is not something that most modellers will have used:
What's your guess?
This is something I ran up the flagpole in the Diner a while back. Maybe someone on this thread will find it useful? You can download and print from Flickr if desired.

It was my first attempt with this program so is quite simple. Maybe I'll develop a tougher one in the future.

Very creative answer JaBear, but not quite on the money!
Based on your theory, you could also add halos to the 'figures' and create a nice Christmas scene!
Cheers!!
