I could use a bunch of those and the CSX car right behind it. Got plenty of the orange one though.

Doesn't SYLVAN or someone make a resin kit for that Canadian bulkhead flatcar?

[lock4244]

Kaslo does. But it's a car that travels far and wide over North American rail, mostly hauling lumber though there are many variations in steel and aluminum service. It would be a great model RTR.

I agree!!!

Pretty sure MRC already did that one ... 

And I already did the HO Rail Yard Models craftsman kit one but I seem to have lost my shrink ray!

[stuntman]

 Some of these would be good.  ;D

Or some modern log spines.

I would like some of these:





I really really want some built up ones of these:
Caswell Gondola's, Intermountain doesn't seem to have the balls to so these in N scale like they did in HO.

I could use a bunch of these three for my WC 'Plover Sub':

Pretty sure MRC already did that one ... 

They did, and the tooling was acquired by Con-Cor.  The model still is active in their line and available direct via online order at $7.55 each.  The only prototypical scheme done though is CR, although undecs are available:

1-147100    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, UNDECORATED    
1-147101    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, CHICAGO & N.W.    
1-147102    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, CONRAIL    
1-147103    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, BURLINGTON NORTHERN    
1-147104    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, BORG WARNER    
1-147105    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, SANTA FE 'SUPER CHIEF'    
1-147106    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, B & O    
1-147107    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, ATLANTIC COAST LINE    
1-147108    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, UNION PACIFIC    
1-147109    'N' 50' RIBSIDE BOX, WC    

Crude, but passable as is and workable for kitbash-upgrading until a better version comes along.

No real reason for this PW autorack, I just think its a neat looking car.

These Central Soya C/Hs are everywhere here on the Eastern Shore, hauling soybean meal for feed.

These guys are everywhere in Roanoke, VA. Pretty neat design.

Sirenwerks gave me two ballast hoppers to bash into this last guy. I have to get over my fear of destroying something so I can learn.

I have posted all of these photos before, but I am still waiting!
