@Mark Holmgren 110217 posted:I don't know anything about real trains, so I'm curious to hear what everyone here runs in their work train consists. I run a crane and crane tender, bunk car, gondola with junk load, and a caboose. I want to add a kitchen car to this at some point. I usually use a road switcher to pull it. Is this a reasonable facsimile of a real-life consist? Should everything be railroad-branded to the railroad you are modeling?
What do you run?
Reasonable back in mid last century. Now work/wreck trains are far and few between.
