For God's sake Mike, finish this up and photo it so we can get a new banner as "Railwire, home of the N Scale Turboencabulator"

And this entire thing has been without doubt the best part of an otherwise entirely humorless day.....

I'm not sure about a depressed-center flat for clearance, but a DODX tank flat on six-wheel trucks might be about right.

But they didn't include the Framastat valve. How can you operate the thing without the Framastat valve?

And here we have the elusive Turboencabulator along with a huge box of spare parts, captured on the ATSF Peavine in central Arizona...

Great job! Mine's been languishing on my desk all summer, a casualty of another big project "off campus". Love the crate - super idea.

We all know that a large box of spare parts is a requirement since that this is constantly needing spares.

Excellent!  We love to see photos of our designs painted, weathered, blocked and strapped, in transit on customer layouts.
