Getting good marks
A couple of posts ago I mentioned that the gondolas were on
the property, i.e. on the layout. I also mentioned that they were without
reporting marks. No, the gondolas were not attending school. How would they
raise their hands to respond to the teacher anyway? No, reporting marks as I
have probably already mentioned, have the initials of the owning railroad as
well as the individual car number, or equipment number if a locomotive or other
vehicle on rails. These marks are mandated by Federal law. Sometimes the car
will have the initials or roadname in large letters on the side of the
equipment if there is enough room and the owners chooses to do so. How many of you
readers know of an actual example of what I am referring to? Please post your
response in the comment section. I will get us started. The SOO railroad comes
to my mind. Looking forward to some fun examples being posted, omscaler
