    1. All challenges close at 12 midnight (24:00 hours) Eastern Standard Time on Monday 5th November 2007, and will be noted with a "Time's up!" post within the thread.
    2. Please use the challenge as a motive to take a new photograph rather than using a photograph that you have taken in the past.
    3. Challenges are open to everyone, have fun!!
    4. Though not required, commenting on other peoples pictures is encouraged.
    5. Only one image per participant so please choose the image carefully.
    6. Any posts with images taken before the commencement of the challenge will be deleted.
    7. For photos to be eligible they must be taken between the 2nd and 5th of November 2007.
    8. Ensure dates and times on your camera are correct.

    I look forward to seeing many contributors, remember this is to encourage all modellers to take a shot of the subject rather than post a photo taken in the past.

    Pauls entry got me thinking about Railbox too. The Avis of the railroad industry in the 80's. Seen on every railroad across America. This model is a wood kit I did sometime ago, and still one of my favorites. My camera is almost on it's last leg, so manually focusing to get this shot, heres my entry. :)

    Sorry there is no custom pain or weathering here on the MK&E railroad (low budget railroading at it's finest)
