Please, more early photos of your layout.

This is actually the current photo of my next layout. I don't know if you can get much more early in the construction than this.

These Edsal steel legs will be the support for the benchwork on my next layout.

Show me any "in-progress" image please.

It has been a while since I shared a Lego-Train picture. This one is of the Florida BRIGHTLINE train on the Florida Lego Users Group's portable layout.

Show me another passenger train please.

More non-EMD passenger diesels, please.

While not commonly considered a passenger locomotive, the Alco RS-3 could have a steam generator and be used in passenger service.

This scene is on the Atlanta Interlocking Model Railroaders sectional HO scale layout.

Show me any passenger train.

Still more Fs? Sure —

The one shown below was part of an A-B-B-A set of Globe diesels, my first HO scale locomotives.  They were originally painted in Santa Fe's "warbonnet" scheme, then later became Canadian Pacific, and still later, the EG&E version of one of my freelanced roads - only one was powered...by a single Lindsey truck.  They were sold-off many years ago.

Wayne

How about a nod to one of the F-units' competitors, the FAs, in all or any of their various iterations, please.

My apologies.

No apology is necessary, but thank you.

This is my second favorite thread, and I watch it very closely. I have well over 1,000 model train pictures, and it amazes me how often people make requests for things I do not have.

STRATTON AND GILLETTE F units on a bridge.

Show me more EMD F units please.

Brent jumped the 24 hours for a new topic earlier this month also.

I had to go back and look, I remember posting that photo when another station had been asked for, that is bizarre where it showed up. My apologies. My post must have been lost in the mail for a while.  On with the show.

Not a problem at all... believe me... your participation in Show Me Something is very appreciated. Please keep on sharing pictures in this fun thread.

The opening post of the August Show Me thread did not explain the rules. 

Rules: A participant should post a photo that meets the request of the previous post. After 24 hours, a participant can post a picture of something else. Each post should have a request for the next person. If no request was made, the previous post is in effect. 

I will post two pictures this time so we may get back on track while being fair to Wayne and Ringo58.

Garry: Thanks for fixing this for us. I was looking for pictures to do it, but I do not have a building that train cars go inside of. Brent jumped the 24 hours for a new topic earlier this month also. I guess we need to make sure the rules are there.

Wayne's request was a bulding in which freight cars are loaded or unloaded inside of it. 

The rolling mill loads gondolas inside. 

Ringo58  requested Geeps..... Here are are two GP7's at work. 

 

My request: ...... Please show F-units. 

Hopefully, we are back on track now.
