Show me that "K".

Here's a Kiski Junction refrigerator car, with the decal designed by a good friend who managed the real Kiski Junction tourist railroad....

The decals were made by Circus City, and I did one car for a friend, and one for myself.

GORT is the kind of whimsical feature John Allen might have put on his Gorre & Daphetid.

I have been known to be whimsical in my photographs too.

Last call for silver. 

 

GORT is silver!

GORT is the kind of whimsical feature John Allen might have put on his Gorre & Daphetid. Didn't he have a flying saucer somewhere on his layout?

Show me another platform by an industry, station, all alone, whatever.

-Kevin

 
This dock is attached to a produce warehouse to the right of the photo. Walthers originally sold it as Miranda's Bananas and I planned to put it here but they discontinued it before I could buy. I substituted another structure and scratchbuilt an extended wood platform. I was never happy with either. When the Miranda's Bananas kit was reissued under a different name, I snapped it up and the substitute structure was moved elsewhere. When Walthers discontinued their modulars, I had a lot of leftover concrete loading docks so I pieced a number of them together to make this one.

Shall we stay with shiny silver? Sure...

 
I'm almost tapped out of silver except for my Budd cars. These will be my last offerings.
 
First, a Nickel Plate silver box car. I haven't researched this one but I'm wondering if it was intended to run in consists with stainless steel passenger cars.
 
 
Lastly, the local spots a silver Sinclair tank car at the fuel depot.

No one is stirring in the observation lounge as this train makes a late-night stop. The Budd stainless steel glistens in the lights.
