These were collected in some research and I decided to share them.

My hope is someone finds these interesting.

John,
Those prototype photos are good examples of chocking and chaining for those who model open loads. Thanks for posting them.

WWII Era Trains,
One day I hope to have a layout set in WWII and have a set of unit trains that represent a movement of an armored division. This would be a couple trains carrying tanks and support vehicles. This movement would include a passenger train from that era.
The photos from this posting are for the vehicle train. I have many of the flat cars and vehicles. I just need to retire, move, and build the layout. Soon I hope.
A unit tank car train moving crude oil is being stocked and planned too.
