I picked up this B&M LL gon at Trains and More (more what I have yet to understand, it's just
trains, seriously) from the Bargain Box for a fiver. I guess the boys at the plant had a
passel of extra orange gondolas they didn't know what to do with. I do like it.

Nice B&M gondola, Chops!
Here's my COTW offering:
This car was part of an Ebay find last Tuesday night - "Brown Box Era" Sea Train container car, complete with brake wheel, which is now part of a short freight haul on the outer line.

| Looks like your son has a pretty fine layout Frank. I recall seeing some of his work you posted in the past. It would be fun to see more of his layout.

Actually, Chops's orange gondola paint scheme is spot-on for a 52' gon:

That (AHM? I believe) frame-flat will never not be a favorite piece of mine. And that snow blower is an absolute beauty as well, I'll probably always stick to a more modern era but stuff like that makes sticking to it hard sometimes.

Also since they cut track maintaince the trains had huge trouble making over the railroad by the end
