Finally! An n scale Turboencabulator

Every other word that guy says is a potential load to write on a waybill.

I just watched the video again, and realized how perfect "the government will buy it" is for the fact that mine's going to be running around in a DODX well hole car!

But, all those shipments would be going to DARPA, right?

This is what I hear when people talk about DCC or maybe what my family hears when I talk about RR stuff!

The Turboencabulator is the motor for Captain Nemo's Nautilus.

The same technical writer worked on the manuals for both the turboencabulator and several advanced DCC systems.

Ooooh, do want! I wonder if Multiscale would consider making a larger turbo-encabulator to fill out the N Scale Kits Queen Mary flatcar better. It could be called the Super-Turbo-Encabulator, with twin-charging and extra washping resilience!

And here is a sign for your flat car load:

Thank you. I'll use it.   

[Ed Kapuscinski]

Me too. Thank you!

Sarah Connor and I fought one of these things off at the plant. I think I died, but at least John survived. I hope. Beware Skynet.

I did not realize the history of the Turboencabulator, quite interesting.

I read that last night. I love the official GE-printed data sheets.

BTW, the website these are sold on has lots of excellent looking oversize flat car loads.

There's a long tradition of engineering in-jokes buried in catalogs and product datasheets.
Anyone remember the Signetics write-only-memory?

Now that you mentioned it - yes!
 I also have fuzzy recollection of a type of FIFO register called FINO (first in, never out), but that might have been an internal joke in the company I worked for at the time (Computervision).
