Randy,
I cannot think of too many items on our railroads that are original. What I like about our hobby is an idea from a fabulous N scale layout might look good on a mediocre layout such as ours.
I've often wondered what our 'elephant' car would look like with three cross boards instead of two but I don't want to take it apart and redo it. The bundle of hay is from a set of a half dozen or so. A block of wood painted yellow would do just as well.
