We are about to commence the exchange program so if you are interested now is the time to self identify
What in the world?! The residents of Greenbrier, MO woke early one morning back in 1917 to find this very large, brightly painted, all steel box car sitting on the spur. No one has ever seen such a strange looking car on this old branch line and it attracted quite a bit of attention. Old #97 was given the task of pulling this mysterious piece of rolling stock to the Frisco shops at Chaffee, MO for examination. I hear that the train disappeared somewhere between Brownwood and Advance. Never to be seen again.
If you want to have it on your layout, Kevin, send me your address and phone number. That's what the Colonel meant by self identify.
TBX 82015 departed GJC on an Eastbound freight, headed for OK. Enjoyed it here in GJ; 9405 5036 9930 0159 5114 18
TBX 82015 arrived Hugo OK in SLSF train 738, and has been switched out for pickup by Paris-Hugo local 4022 for delivery to Precision Packaging and Printing. While setting out 82015, the local switch crew discovered a covered hopper that had inadvertently been switched out to Hugo Railcar, where it became a canvas for the local "artists". It has been cleaned of the old load (wheat from Texas, which had gone to ruin), and is destined for a load pickup in Paris, TX.
Noooooo you don't......it was YOUR car that got left out. Personally, I didn't think there was anybody in Hugo that could do anything with a rattle can other than paint an overpass or something bad about someone's sister on the water tower....................but once Hugo Railcar scours it out, it's being consigned for Flex-o-Lite to be loaded with reflective glass beads. We still have GP7s down here, but rumpr has it some new kinda power is supposed to be coming- something called a GP15-1, or some such.
