A substitute picture I really have. Bought it in a train show in the early '90s. Ran it a few times and still in the box. Now no longer runs.

How about some big power? She doesn't get much use but here's SD90-43MAC 8096, shes out of the era I model nowadays, but she was my first purchase on my own, so I keep her around.

Show me your oldest model.

Check out the Balfour and Colucci Creek Southern Railroad, my proto-freelanced N scale model railroad, at bccsrailroad.weebly.com or on Youtube on my channel, N Scale Train Boy.

 Taken a long time ago. before the layout moved to a new home.   That load is still on that car, the rates must be huge by now. 

I forgot this load of telephone poles

 

More loads.  Lets make them tarpped loads.

More steel loads, please.

A load of plate steel, with welded and bolted hold-downs, as seen at the steel plant where I worked...

...which prevent the load from shifting.

It might look like a boxcar...

...but with roof hatches and longitudinal discharge hoppers under the floor, it's actually an early version of a covered hopper.  It's one of four scratchbuilds.

Ed: "More diesel groupings please."

Not sure if 'two' is a group, but here you go:

A pair of F-7s from rival roads sweep around the curve at the west end of the BRVRR layout 

More diesel or steam groups please.

Remember its your railroad
