That is too funny, I have seen that Flex Seal Paint or Tape on Commercial, supposed to work quite well on sealing anything you can think of.......
Nice shot for sure....

Thanks Fam <3
Can you make a boat out of it like you can with duct tape? Can you make a rope bridge out of it like duct tape? Can you use it to put a car back together like you can with duct tape? Can you use it to bind the various pieces of wood used to make a working medieval trebuchet like you can with duct tape? You can do everything I just listed with duct tape.

meh..
A rare lash-up of NP #802 and foreign power SP&S #54 works the Western Timber Products mill in North Blackwater on a spring morning.

Great shots Coleton. NP at its best!!
Wasn't the Spokane, Portland and Seattle jointly owned by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific? If so, then SP&S #54 wouldn't be considered foreign power, right?

Alco Spoken Here
Toying around with anthracite roads (very early WIP)
Joint line stock is still (in some respect) considered foreign power. You can think of it as D&RGW being foreign power on the Mopac even though they're both Gould roads, or UP power being considered foreign stock to the PRR in the early 1870s even though PRR owned a majority share in the UP before Gould took it over...

I thought Gould's railroad holdings where WP, DRGW, Wabash, and WM. You sure the Gould's held control of the Mopac. Nevermind just looked it up goood god he has only maybe 200-400 miles and one year short of having a true transcontinental railroad.
The "Gould Roads" usually refer to WP, D&RG/RGW/D&RGW, and MoPac. The rest tended to make them too short-lived to cooperate as much as the others, but the "Gould Roads" of the West operated as one for a great deal of time. George Gould tended to order his locomotives for every railroad all at once, so you'll find examples of Baldwin builder's sheets listing D&RG, RGW, MP, and WP, sometimes all on the same spec sheet. Rather unfortunately for the WP, he bought all of their passenger stock under the D&RG name, and officially leased them to the WP. After his death, however, the D&RGW reclaimed all of its rolling stock, forcing the WP to start all over again, which is when they started getting their "Harriman-clone" coaching stock. It was lucky for the WP that the D&RGW didn't take more, though - they had about the same technical claim to nearly half of WP's steam locomotives at the time.
What about railroads that are subsidiaries of other railroads?

Jacksonbarno,
Those are really nice shots for your WIP, especially the passenger train. Thanks for posting. Will look forward to seeing more.

The SP&S wasn't really a subsidiary, though, at least not by traditional standards. You don't have a subsidiary of multiple railroads; it's not fair to call the SP&S a subsidiary any more than it is to call the Colorado Midland a subsidiary of the D&RGW and C&S. It's true that they owned it, but the CM is an entirely different entity than either "parent". Again, back to the PRR/UP situation. Prior to 1873, the PRR had a controlling share in the UP, but nobody's calling the UP a PRR subsidiary. The most "subsidiary" thing SP&S did was get a large proportion of ex-NP locomotives and stock, but again, nobody's calling the MoPac or the WP subsidiaries of the D&RG(W). Even the V&T or YVRR, which as a matter of course had to use CP/SP shops, rolling stock, and locomotives, aren't considered subsidiaries of the SP. Shortlines and bridge lines are a special case.
Spec testing the CP 4-6-0s to make them a little harder to drive at speed:

Let me give you some examples of what I mean by 'subsidiary railroads of other railroads':
Subsidiaries of the Southern Railway:
Alabama Great Southern
Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific
New Orleans and North Eastern
Virginia & Southwestern
Georgia Southern & Florida
And many more smaller ones
