Follow Up On Weird Tank Car
Fri, 2012-06-29 06:29 — ferroequinologist1
To All: Here is a more correct version of the weird tank car. This one I kitbashed for Dave Capron's Great Lakes Northern RR in Suttons Bay, Michigan. He will use it at his stock yard slaughter house for tallow loading. I belonged to his round robin group in Michigan and still make buildings and other things for his layout, free of charge, so that I am still a member from 1200 miles away! I will post pix of a Teconite Plant I scratch built for him when I receive the digital images. Look for them soon. Yours, Elvin Howland/E. St.Louis Rail Group Layout

Your photo isn't showing
Ferro:
Your photo is not showing.
You need to rename your photo file name so it doesn't have special characters in it, then repost it using the photo upload.
Log out of the MRH website and visit your post to make sure the photo came through. Sometimes you may see the photo because you own it and you're logged in - logging out and checking your post validates that your photo actually came through.
Keep your photo file names simple, without special characters, and you'll have fewer problems. Sometimes those file names can look like command strings to the browser if you use special characters - and then the photo may not display as you expect in some browsers.

Ahhh! Got it!
That IS a weird looking tank car.
Reminds me of the Oscar Meyer Weiner-mobile!

If I am not mistaken, Elvin's new post here was to give a "verbal' update on the subject - the picture is in the original post linked above, as George (Possum) has discovered.
