Thanks for responding. A nice E63, Ray, and also charming for its bright real light bulbs. Sorry you have only a few in HO, Bigdaddy. Please see my “Reason” below. Before my request-time expires, I’ll explain briefly why I made it. The photos below show my 460#s on an M-Track carpetbahn pulled by a BR 55 (No. 55-5415 from a 29840 set). Most have OEM loads, some are home-made. I’d still very much like to see a few examples of how others have used such older cars if anyone has them. Steventrain appears to have some similar gondolas shown in the last two photos of Post #145. Reason = I’m upgrading my layout and rolling stock, and am vacillating between keeping or selling & replacing them as I proceed. A few more examples from the Forum (even some in a mixed consist) may help me make that decision. I’ll wait patiently. Regards -- Richard Note: The photos might look stretched because of their cropping. If they do, click to enlarge them for the correct perspective. DumbGuy attached the following image(s):

Updating my last post, I’ve decided not to sell my set of old sturdy Relex-coupled 4601, -02 & -04 coal gondolas. I even found a few more to add, and the consist’s become one of my favorites. Photos attached. My new request is for a consist with white or light-colored Grain Silo Cars, similar to Marklin’s #46323, #46321, or similar sets. A mixed consist is fine, and even better if they’ve been weathered a bit. As before, the photos might appear stretched because of their cropping. If they do, click to enlarge them for the correct perspective. Regards -- Richard DumbGuy attached the following image(s):

I only have one of these, but it is a family favourite. -Brandon

Collected gradually over the years. Along with these, I’d had a very nice 10-car #46030 set that was excellent to display, but just too delicate to use on track. My decision last month was which set to keep . . . . . the 46030 set went to eBay, the 460x’s will stay. Now just waiting with bated-breath to see a few Grain Silo Cars. Regards -- Richard

Joined: 18/03/2007(UTC) Posts: 6,573 Location: Brisbane, Australia		Hi, Someone must have a photo or two of grain cars. Here is a photo courtesy of a French retailer, PierreDominique. They are era IV SNCF wagons made by Makette in HO. I do own one of these, but no photo I can show on the internet. And another Jouef car from Cherbourg Maquettes, from whom I buy a couple of models. And the real thing. These cars are ubiquitous in Canada, there are currently over 17,000 of them, built for the Government to facilitate Canada's grain harvest and shipment. Multiple colours abound, her is an example. Now I would like to see a photo of an American tank car. regards Kimball Edited by user 29 January 2014 07:31:37(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

That is a sanding tower perhaps, what a beauty. Coaling towers were often similar, only much larger. regards Kimball

The BNSF Railway Bridge 9.6 is a swing-span railroad bridge across the Columbia River, connecting Portland, Oregon with Vancouver, Washington. It was opened in 1908.

The Prussian G3 is a fully valid entry for the question (BR 53), even if it's not by Borsig (optional), nor is it in DRG livery in the photo. What I was really looking for as the trickiest full option answer was the Saxonian V (or V V) by Borsig, haven't seen a pic of that.... Here's another DRG BR 53, The Wuerttemberg Fc. Now over to you, Ray.

I am not sure it counts, because it does not say the destination. Worth a shot :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fi...lmtog_i_Narvik_1906.jpeg -Brandon

Joined: 18/03/2007(UTC) Posts: 6,573 Location: Brisbane, Australia		Hi, I have seen many photos of engines being loaded or unloaded from ships. Many locomotives were made for export over the last two centuries. To be loaded or unloaded, they have to be in the air for at least 10 minutes. Here is one example, from Ireland. Now I would like to see a train carrying an aeroplane (following the theme....) regards Kimball
