John,

The April project will get posted whenever Ed decides to get off his a$$ and pick something...probably not until the end of the month.  ;D

To enter, first buy the appropriate car, then begin working on it.  ;)

Or, as most idi...people down here say...a Kay-buse.

Whats in a name, In Western Australia, {the nations capitol}, we dont have Cabooses, Cabeese or
any of those sort of things,;-} But, we do have Brake Vans, thats a little room on wheels that
grts towed around behind the Train with a "Dude" sitting inside trying too look important.

I guess that would do for a W.A. entrant in this Comp`??. Yes/No!.

The Pennsylvania Railroad didn't have "cabooses" either, Centauri, nor did the Canadian roads. PRR called them "cabin cars" and the Canadians refer to them as "vans". The same car is a "brake van" in the UK, although I don't believe those have the amenities of North American cabooses, which had desks, bunks, stoves, and toilets.

I for one would like to see your Western Australia brake van!

We call them cabooses as well, both words are used with equal frequency.

So would I!  ;D

I for 1 would love to see more from "Oz"! They have some very unique cars &
locos from what I understand in various gauges. Still an idea for me in the future
to attempt something from down there-possibly QR (Queensland Rail) since I have several
friends in Queensland. (1 in the Northern Territory too!  ;))
