This website was created to show many different versions of similar freight cars and engines.  I started out taking photographs of  BC Rail freight cars in May 2009 to have a collection for my HO scale layout depicting BC Rail/CN Rail operations 2004-2007.  I was beginning to see the new CN paint scheme on many cars from the BC Rail roster and wanted to preserve some images of  the cars before they were painted.  As I began my BC Rail collection I soon realized that other cars were being repainted from all CN subs.  I decided to photograph all cars from that point on.  The idea of a website never was my intention until I realized that my photo collection was well over 4000 in only a few short months.  With a good collection of photographs and being fortune enough to see engines and freight cars from BC Rail on a daily basis, it wasn’t long before I started to think about sharing these images.  When I started to research BC Rail for my own layout I found some sites with photographs but I never saw any large images and thought this would be useful for fellow modelers.  I also wanted to see rail cars in there present state, weathered, dirty, dented and scratched.  I also wanted to show freight cars of various roads and origins that travel on all lines.  Some photos are blurred and I will be replacing them as I acquire more images.  Hope you enjoy the site and I hope it helps with your modeling.
