It would be great! If folks could share pictures of just freight cars. No locomotives and no cabooses. I recognize this could be a very boring and unimportant thread to some. I don't have access to any at this time. Who will be the first? Let's see your prototype pics of freight cars.
@Sepp K Thanks! For being the first! on the First. I actually really like that car 'body'. @Hardcoaler Thank you! for the Pics. I have always liked the Chessie logo for its creativeness. I have found that in a line up of logos that women in general will select the 'Chessie' over the CP Multi Mark and others. ♣
@Hardcoaler What a great collection. Edit: So many cars from 'pre-graffitti' days. at 15yo I took the SCL from NYC to Orland - by myself. What an adventure. The NP Yin Yang has become important to the family as the 14yo is closing in on his Kung Fu red belt.
Thank you. When I was a young teen, I shot them to fill time between trains, but as I grew older, I realized that the classic roads were falling away and it was time to capture as many as I could. The rise of graffiti largely put an end to my interest in freight cars, unless new such as @Sepp K captured.
