Still got to number and letter the car, but that’s it…

One heck of a build. Great imagineering, but you’ll never get that load delivered to your Railroad until you rebore all your tunnels. Just have 'em send it here where there are no interference’s (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
You might need to get a new locomotive to pull that!
Or two! I’m picturing one engine in front, a idler flat, drop center, Idler flat, one engine behind, work car, and a caboose. Should make an interesting string.

Let me guess, installation of the device has been subcontracted to Heath Robinson Engineering Inc.
@ Forrest… Actually H.R. was the original designer… Construction and Fab by GE, under direct supervision of Professor T. Branestawm with technical assistance from R.G.
Jim R. summed up my response…Now you’ll need a secret military laboratory to which to deliver this!
Jim said it first, but WOW, WOW, WOW!!!
Dave, I really thought the car was over the top, but the load is way way over the top. Hat’s off to you, Sir!
Every time i see this I am impressed with how much you did in such a short time. This is just an impressive model.
Took a couple more pics…
WOW does this thing look like it straight out of a DARPA project…
I’m not sure I like that thing pointed at me…LOL

Dave, just how many cans did you use to create that monster?
I originally had 11 cans, I decided to swap out 3 for the control base, so now I’m down to:
2 - 2lb coffee cans
2 - 18.6 oz Campbells Soup cans
2 - Tuna cans
2 - Cat food cans
8 - Total, Do I win a prize for the most cans used?

Well, since you make the rules … (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
Mik Rules fall very close to “Calvin Ball Rules”…LOL

He did clearly state in the beginning you could use more than one can

I’m glad I’m not the only one that likes the rules of Calvin Ball.
But I’m not sure I want to talk about “the noodle incident”…
Excuse me, Dave, but there are a few gentlemen in black suits at the door who would like to speak with you.
Beautiful!!
I’d love to see a model crane to hoist that puppy! (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-laughing.gif)
I want to see giant sparks flying out of the ends like a huge Tesla coil. Now that would be truley awesome! (http://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-wink.gif)
