Show me something you made that never made it on to the layout.

I could answer this a hundred different ways. I built this boxcar from the scrap box last year. Since I don't have a layout... nothing has made it there.

Show me another forty foot boxcar.

Please show me an engine that pulled a Royal or President or Prime Minister or some other person deemed important.
