Roger: "Another either two story or multi story building if you please."

Michelle's Fashions is a Design Preservation kit. It was named for one of my sisters.

More buildings, two or more stories, please.

A pair of brand-new, Baldwin RF-16 (NYC DFA-8a) "Sharks" sit outside the locomotive shop:

24 Hours... no more headers-to-headers, so a new subject, new picture, and a bump to the top.

Here is a two story building in a scene.

Please show another nose-to-nose shot.

While it may not appear so, these two are nose-to-nose, since, like the prototypes on which they were based, the 76 (GP7) has the short hood as its front, while the 403 (GP9), ran long hood forward...

More G&D inspired photos, please.

John Allens "Organic Switch Engine" (the dinosaur) was GORRE AND DAPHETID #13 and nicknamed "Emma".

This locomotive, when completed, will be STRATTON AND GILLETTE #13, and be named "Emma". This is the oldest prototype locomotive on my roster, so it is my dinosaur.

Show me something else inspired by the work of John Allen please.

More cabooses if you will.

This caboose, by Roundhouse, pays tribute to John Allen's GORRE AND DAPHETID.

I am going out on a limb with this request...

Please show me something that was inspired by, or pays tribute to, the great John Allen and/or the G&D Line.

I don't know about "standard" but this BRV caboose is the only home road caboose.

I would say that makes it the standard!

BRVRR
More cabooses, wooden or otherwise, please.

Here is one for the "otherwise" column. This steel body caboose is built from an Athearn Blue Box kit, and is used in the Prop Fleet for photography.

Please keep going with more of these cabooses, wooden or otherwise, please.

Please show me a wood caboose

The most common caboose on the STRATTON AND GILLETTE is this "standard" design of a wooden center-cupola caboose.

The model is a Hallmark import of a GULF MOBILE AND OHIO prototype. There were a lot of them made, and it took me less than three years to get the ten of them I "needed" for my layout. Only six of them are painted so far.

Show me your railroads "standard" caboose. Prototype cabooses are OK. Thank you.

Please show us some more railway cars "stuck in the middle".

This train isn't generating much "shareholder value":

I guess mixed trains have run their schedule.

On to a new subject... 24 hours... bump to the top... new picture.

This is the middle of a train. You cannot see the locomotive or the caboose in the picture.

Wayne: "How's about showin' us a mixed train...freight and passenger in the same train."

New York Central Mikado #9519 leads a short mixed local past Grafton Tower and Barron's Fuel Supply on the BRVRR layout.

More mixed freight/passenger trains, please.
