    Hi,
    I'm not even sure if this is the right forum to be asking this but here goes anyway;
    What is this?
    I photographed it from the window of an Amtrak train in upstate NY in 2007 when my wife and I were traveling across the USofA by rail. I'm just curious as to what it is exactly......As I'm modeling the WP transitional era, I have no intention of modeling it....just curious is all.
    Cheers,
    Rob

    Mmmm... maybe facilities for emptying the toilets on passenger cars?

    I'm with you on this one...That looks like the kind of hose usually used for that, the pipe conection at the top of the stands looks like those typically used for that too. I've never seen a mass toilet flushing site though.

    Just think of the fun you could have if you modeled one on your layout...ewww! whats that smell?...wasn't me, it's the layout...
