Hey, hey, Bradley.  What are you doing up there, Bradley.  Don't let those 3 a**hats do that to you.

Hmm... do they allow
pets on this train...?


Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.

Tex Mex self-loading freight (for those who remember the Trains article from many years ago).

Richie, that picture is redonkulous.   :lol: :facepalm:   

Here's some boxcars I made several years ago. Back when it was the only option,  I turned Con Cor's thrall auto boxcar into a Greenville by filling in the sides.  And I made the truck centers reflect reality and did some underbody piping (you can barely see it in the middle) along with some grabs and body mounted couplers.  Incidentally, it was painted with Polly scale C&O blue, but I think I like the Fox Valley color on the can stock car on the right better.



Up next is a Chessie B-74 class car.  It started out as an FGE reefer but I changed the doors and the sill.  It's a fairly simple conversion and makes a neat, unique car.



And work continues on the Emerson, GA photo/scenery experiment.  It's since been panted brown.





Much more to do.
