That’s how we got this together. With a picture I had taken at home.

if anyone had warrants out on them they are still safe.
Pheew, thank goodness! And since, for some reason, I only appear in 2 photographs, and in one of them I almost lost in the background… I think I said too much.
between 2 old photo albums! How the gremlins got it there, I have no idea!
Lou, I know. See, around here, someone “cleans up” from time to time. Then I spend the next week or so, hunting for stuff that I know was “right here” not that long ago.

Ric,
I have asked lots of questions over the years but many have gone unanswered?
HOWEVER …your comment this past weekend on the USA 55’ tankers and how they pushed and pulled at dad’s place during one of his ops actually excited me bit! When he lets me back home I might bring 6 more to add, along with a real Amtrash consist and then I might possibly pick up the throttle for an ops session.
Good stuff and great conversation this weekend especially with Ken as we always communicate with sign language as we have for many years.

I was so inspired by the lecture by Professor Golding on the Timesaver, I took action on the topic of freight cars going to specific industries. I picked up a couple of bottles of water, and as an homage to York, I put up a billboard on one of the buildings, and repainted and lettered the tank cars.
Gone, but not forgotten.

That’s awesome Lou but please don’t let his mommy know he’s really shooting dice while playing with trains. Otherwise he will have to wait till his father gets home and that means we might not see him next year in Maryland.
Lou, as always, ignore Rooster.(http://largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)

You’ve got the right idea with specific cars of distinction (meaning different numbers or distinguishing labeling - by the way great labeling - had no idea it was America’s oldest Fair) and dedicated to one industry. Captive service or only industry using or receiving that type of car. Do that for 4 or 5 industries and you’ve got a game.
.
Dice are used with a number of the dice assigned to each type of car. Remember 6’s are Box Cars. 1’s are no car. Assign numbers on the dice for the other types of cars, like 2’s equals flats, 3’s equal gondolas. Roll the 6 dice or however many you need to represent how many cars you can exchange The dice numbers determine your manifest.
And so continues the TIMESAVER or time waster.
