Got boxcars?

Loading corvettes 

Thumbtacked SP 8 door

Scratch built based on photo found on berlinr site. I still wonder if this is a photo shop he did and had tried to contact him about it without success.  Used an MTH frame and trucks, shortened to 34 feet scale, atlas details.  Apparently this type of reefer was real from comments I received several years ago when I inquired on the real train forum.  It was a project that made me appreciate scratch modelers even more.

Not just fun but can be very useful.

I have one of the original K-Line "Reddy Kilowatt" versions having worked for 26+-years in the power industry.  Have used it to check and locate power drops and loses in trackage.

Since have stuff to do this weekend, will not wait till Sunday.

Last week Justhavnfun posted photo of his Lionel (probably KL tooling) voltmeter N&W box car.

Here is my original K-Line with Reddy Kilowatt.  As stated before since working in the power industry for almost 3-decades "Reddy" was a must have.

I love " Ready Killowatt"

O scale reenactment ...

I know, I know, not exactly a "box" car.  But, even so, what is wrong in this image?  This is a Lionel 6-17311 Standard O reefer from the early 1990's.

          a great shot for weathering.......

                                                     some box car art.......

"New" this week.  1955 McGinnis era box car.

Know the black body and orange door are prototypical but not sure about the orange ladder and grab-irons.

Any way makes great companion and a trifecta to older McGinnis look MTH box cars.

The new black one and old orange one very Halloweenish.

#1387

Here are some box car pics from my layout starting with a "caboxcar".
