I saw a picture that Vic did on Techincal Q & A for explaining how to set up couplers with a picture. That picture got me thinking about how cool it would be if we all worked on a mutual private railway: The Gauge Railway. We could each make up a car or two for our layouts for it. But I think we need to get a general consesus on the font and general color scheme this railway would use.

So what do the rest of y'all think?

ps: here is the picture that got all of this started....

Hi gaugers:
Think this idea is wonderful and it has been great to watch y'all bring it together. Can't wait to have the time to make a piece of gauge rolling stock so i can run it at the train meets and see if i can shake out any local gauge members at the shows. Also, i need to make one so that there will be at least one S-gauge representation of the railline. We seem to be a rare breed here abouts!

One problem, I have not been able to figure out my "number" so i can properly lable my car. Help!

Regards,
The Lone "S" Gauger

Hi ho, silver bullet express, awwwwaaaayyyyy........

Mike,
I posted my first entry in the "Photos" section of the board. If you want you can add it to the equipment register on your site. If you need a better picture let me know, and I'll get a better one.
Thanks...........
 
I've seen it, 88, it looks great !!!

And I just updated The Gauge Railway's OER to include the car and its pic..................

(I've been sick the last couple of days, so you'll have to excuse my tardiness)

PS - my Atlas undec six-bay covered hopper should arrive later this week for conversion to my first GAUG unit.
 
Gauge Boxcar

Here is the first Gauge Line boxcar for the WC & T RR. It was a cheapy from Industrial Rail, ($2.29) I opened a door, repainted conrail blue, all the data is not on yet but will be. (that stuff is hard to do in N Scale.) I would like to have it registered if I may, also if I posted this in the wrong spot let me know.
Thanks
Jim Marksberry:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Yeh, I'm planning on cheating a little bit. I'm getting some decals for MP covered hoppers, but only really need the numbers. So I'm going to use the data from those decals for my GAUG covered hopper that I'm working on.

PS - your boxcar has been entered into the OER on my website.
 
What would the number be for a loco? It would be a big surprise to you that I would do an industrial switcher :eek: :eek: :eek: P-K leasing, D.B.A. The Guage Railroad. After that sex scandel between Old Man Knudsen and Monica Lewinsen, the young Danish model, they about had to take his name off the leasing co. He denied it at first, then he finally admitted it, as he smiled, sitting back in his chair, smoking a cigar. He said, "This tastes good."

:D :D :D
