    Getting some waybills set up and set aside now for when they decide they need to pay a visit to the Silver Mountain sub again.

    I don’t know their current location, but I’d love to have my 1960s era M&StL Bartlett Yard in Peoria Illinois scheduled as one of the stops on another worldwide trip.

    Bremner, I have a TBX tank car, 4 TBX grain hoppers and 5 Missouri and Illinois boxcars in N-scale. Maybe we can get a tour going in N-scale.

    John & Dave-

    We had a couple of N scale cars. They disappeared for some time, and were finally recovered. I do not recall who had them at last, although I have a vague idea who might be contacted. But this is an HO topic.....

    A Kansas Colorado GP20 spots a TBX RBL at a warehouse in western Kansas.
    This car can be on your layout too...
    This is the TBX 82015

    Here is an SPSF GP20 spotting an RBL, TBX 30500.
    This car is a true World traveler! It started off in Australia, but could visit YOUR layout next!

    Just wanted everyone to know the rules for the car exchange.
    Today we are proud to announce the start of our next car exchange program consisting of two boxcars

    TBX 82015 and TBX 30500

    You can nominate to have either one or both cars on your layout although they are both being sent independently, TBX 82015 will commence circulation from USA by Paul Liddiard and the second box car TBX 30500 will commence circulation from Australia by Paul Cassar (Colonel). Once we have nominations we will design a route for both boxcars to commence their journey. Our goal is to send to closest participants to keep postage costs to a minimum, we will post in the thread the list of participants and the order of the route. the following rules will apply

    List of rules:
    1. Car must be forwarded to next participant within one week.
    2. Photo of car on your layout or diorama should be posted to the new thread
    3. No modifications will be made to the car.
    4. keep the cars moving, so as many as want to can enjoy them.
    5. Only provide needed maintenance.
    6. When the car arrives and departs post to the thread

    To nominate as a participant the following needs to be requested names, addresses and phone numbers of those that want to participate. They can email us their info or send information via conversations to either Paul Liddiard or Paul (Colonel) but firstly post here and we will add you to the list.

    Look forward to as many HO modellers participating and showcasing their layout with our trainboard boxcars

    Perhaps some day we could have a re-run of the decals?

    That's a good idea! Perhaps we could get Circus City to do a run of decals for cars and Locomotives.....
