I had the header date wrong, and this is a better shot of my little coal rake. I am still learning how to use an smart phone camera, and am shocked at the improved resolution compared to a digital camera.

I put the engine up on Reddit last week after I finished the paintjob, the cars were this week's project. Still a few things to do...
Chops, it was a fun mod...an absolute pain in the ass, but fun! Glad you like it!

I picked up some decal paper at the hobby shop and printed them myself. The font I found online in a free package of 1950's style fonts. This particular font is called "Air Conditioner".

That's a suprisingly complicated question Barry! 
At the most basic, it's a collection of different forums all hosted under one website, with different forums being different "sub" reddits. For example, the model train community is "reddit.com/r/modeltrains". There's 100s of forums, from the broad, to the oddly specific, to the... well, things that should be kept off this board.

It is my own fantasy line, although I don't know that I'm taking it any farther than building the one train.
