I could say the same for you, Ryan, except yours doesn't have Lake Erie in it! :hehe:

Seriously, though, I'm been seeing a TON of great shots here in the past few months. Keep it up, everyone!

Keep calm and try not to stare,
 
Nice shots Ryan and Jackson!
Real quick, I was just wondering if anyone knew if an Auxiliary Car like the one in the following photo (link) is available for Trainz anywhere. http://www.railpictures.net/images/d1/8/1/5/8815.1231377388.jpg It doesn't have to have the Seaboard logo or anything, just the wheelbase and size is what I'm looking for.
I have the one by stevelerro, but it's much longer and is a 6 axle. The above is a short 4 axle, and is relatively small compared to others available; but it fits the engine it's with.
Thanks!
 
The only other water cars I know are the UP Aux Tenders (Though I dont remember who did those), or a few "Cylinder Tank on Flat Car" type. The one from K&L comes in a black undec. version at least and has detail galore.

The issue with Water cars is that of the excursion variety they're almost exclusively Re-purposed locomotive Tenders, and few modelers here have built any of such description. Even K&L's was originally another Locomotives Tender (I believe a C&O loco no less, though don't quote me on that, I might be misremembering that). The UP Auxiliary tenders are almost entirely former Oil Turbine Tenders. If someone could take one of Bdaneals USRA Tenders (the 2-8-2 Mikado's for instance would be good one, though for the one you have a pic something smaller) and just added Panel over the coal tub, removed the paint/lettering, and added a couple extra hoses off the front, you'd have a perfect stand in....

I had already thought of this, but this sort of editing is beyond my understanding. It would make a nice little "bonus" in-game though.
