Don’t know if I’ll get this built in time for CSC Locomotion Weekend, but here’s a Pittsburgh classic cargo car. (I definitely don’t have a shortage of trains for that…) If we ever get a show at the Heinz History Center, they would get a kick out of it.
Also if anyone knows of some more Pittsburgh specific train oddities, send me a chat about it. On my Phoenix Train Works page I try to model the hazardous and unusual and if it’s part of local Steel City history, even better. So far, I have torpedo, slag, and schnabel cars influenced by local examples.
I was expecting a green train car in the shape of a pickle. Your model is even better (although a “Pickle Car” a la the Wiener Mobile would be pretty nice also). 😀
@timf, I would love to see an Oscar Meyer Wiener Mobile modeled in Lego. That would be hilarious in the city street layout. XD
@playingwithechoes it looks like Bruce Lowell already did it (using the same concept as the “Lowell Sphere”). I think this would be pretty easy to replicate for our Town displays.
