These are no comparison to the nice models being shown here but it is all my MR except one boxcar I can’t find.  The NW2 is an All nation that runs smooth as silk, the reefer is Atlas and I built the caboose. I have yet to weather the loco.

I have just pulled out my caboose book , to order supplies to make 3 of these , this is the most common style they should have been making in O . great job on all of them.

It's not O scale, but here are my images of the Milwaukee Road in HO at my train club (South Florida Railway Museum).  I'm slowly building a 12+ unit consist to be led by a MTH Little Joe locomotive that I recently purchased on Pre-Order from TrainWorld.  Riding along with the Little Joe in what I will call the Cascade Mountains is an "Excursion Consist" of a Super Dome and a SkyTop Lounge Observation Car.  I just love the Orange and Maroon color scheme, the UP scheme, not so much.
Here is my YouTube video of it from late last month https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW4eM_q3cH8&t=60
The Milwaukee Road is one of my favorite lines of the past, bit too expensive to be done in O, but I'm always on the lookout for just the single 1:48 SkyTop Lounge by Golden Gate Depot that I would display at home under glass.

Scott at HRM models was kind enough to upscale his Wausau, WI HO REA freight house kit to O scale for me. Kit number HRM-713. I managed to find the space next to the depot. Most of the interior details are from Berkshire Valley Models.

See this thread for the details on the depot. https://ogrforum.com/...-wisconsin-depot-kit

Well, I saw the topic and I thought I'd pull our Lionel Milwaukee Road #261 out of the glass display cabinet and have it pull our Christmas consist.  It's not pulling passenger car set you'd expect to see (those are in the boxes right now) but the focus is on #261.  Even without the passenger cars it's a blast to run our only Milwaukee Road engine (love the sound and the steam chest cylinder effect)!

- I'm sure the vehicles don't match the era, but our layout has whatever the kids (big or small ) like to have on the layout.
