Anything is possible, except maybe a Leaf's cup!


You sir, are rotten to the core..... And by way of proof I offer your choice of road name..... LOL

GO LEAFS GO !!!!!!!!!
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

A line of high quality turnouts would be great.

The biggest gap in almost any modern modeler's roster is 53' intermodal equipment: any highway trailer, containers in JB Hunt and Schneider (by the dozen), and one more style of 53' well car (NSC or Trinity).  Please...

Easy...just one day where everyone on Railwire didn't have a gripe with MTL  :)  Oh, yea, code 55 track and turnouts.  I've been eyeballing my stash of code 80 thinking I'll just have to do...fingers crossed.

Cheers

N scale Genset from a well known manufacturer that already has it tooled in HO.
N Scale GMD-1
N Scale GP40-2L/W; again from a well known manufacturer that has already tooled it.

Other then that, time.  I have enough projects (and the resources for most of them).

I would like some turn of the century wooden passenger cars of the 60-70 ft variety such as this Jackson and Sharpe car



I would like some 30ft boxcars and flat cars/ early gondolas to go with them like in this photo



And some earlier tank cars than the MT and Bachmann 8000 gal models out there currently. Look at the tanks circled in this photo



And some decals to make it all my own without spending as much on lettering as I do on the cars.

I'd like articulated intermodal cars that are appropriate for the mid-1980s, e.g., Gunderson Twin-Stacks (the double stack cars with bulkheads) and Santa Fe Fuel Foilers.

I hope to see the production problems at DeLuxe Innovations sorted out.

Personal wish list includes correct Hunt and Schneider 53' containers, Wabash 53' Duraplate and Duraplate HD trailers, BLMA quality 48' spines, Espee correct SW1500 and AC4400CWs, extended draft gear coupler pockets.

Project wise, hope to finish my AC44 and SD70M projects and experiment with etching and RP work for some upgrades I have in mind :-)
Oh, maybe make a start on a layout and catch up with some a$$hats when I hit the US in March (WPM in San Bernadino) and Jul/Aug for USA & Canada :-)

Ok, we are up to 44 posts now. I feel I have to mention the K4 again.
Josh Surkosky

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."
