Congratulations to the PRR; ya'll found a way to make the Canadian National look good......... have a boo at that "thing" behind the CN flat car......and in the John Street yards in Toronto no less....

Ok; so what was the "Standard Railway of the World" up to here ?
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Yes, it's a PRR car, but that does not mean PRR had anything to do with the loading. No self-respecting PRR car inspector would have allowed that car to move ten feet! PRR had far more gondolas than any other North American railroad due to all the steel it hauled, so every road used them.

And the slogan was "Standard Railroad of the World." I know you guys use Railway in Canada, while down here we use both, but it was the PRR and not the PRW.  ;D ;D ;D

Dang; I can't even get a thinly veiled PRR shot past you guys.......LOL

CNR = "Cars Never Returned"......"Cars Normally Rusted".... "Can't Normally Run"......"Cars Need Repair"..... oh, I got a million of em..................
