A day of what should've been-and a laugh

Just buttoned up my two freshly redone intermodal containers and thought I'd post pics for your amusement...1 REA livery and 1 CB&Q...on my railroad, no-one has gone out of business nor have any mergers been done yet{that's my story and I'm sticking to it}.

Another thing that should have happened...having people in my dummy doodlebug passenger unit. Had to repaint half of them last night since I didn't want matching colored copies...Walter might cringe if he sees what I did to his standing Peep people to get them to sit down!

Hope you enjoy...now to grab the G scale U-boat and finish making it CB&Q livery....I like the CB&Q- go figure.

Looks good. None of those people look upset at being cut off at the knees - or worse - so maybe Walter won't mind either. I've had to do a lot of surgery on folks to get them to fit into cars and scenes, too. Passenger cars, Budds and Doodlebugs do look so much better with a near-full complement of folks.

The beep people are a varied lot..ok, not so varied...anyway there's the majority of the flexible folks and the few hard cast ones w/bases...interesting.

I do agree that an empty passenger car of any kind is an unhappy one!
