2.Fbox (never hit )
3. ATW's (hit but are sweet orangy colours)
4. KCS (never hit)
5. WLO or ICG dull grey waffles

the funniest thing about this thread is seeing the shit on peoples wish list
and thinking to myself if i never see another one of those it'll be too soon. like a csx waffle, ugh...we have turned down missions because that is all that was laid up. yuck...but people will probably say that about me too. Like im sure most west coast cats feel the same way about gvsr's whereas they are a comodity where im at.

anyhoo!

wish:
-old orange tropi baby ridg
-old red white and blue bar with "state of maine" accross the top.
-T or F box (soon enough, they cant hide forever)
-Any 90's auto parts (ive got them with streaks and thro ups but pieces is what counts)
-Any GVSR or VCY box cars (preferably the right side under the "golden west service" logo.
fresh paint or new built coil cars
-those all black covered or ridged hoppers
-any new built coal drag cars, the nice shiny ones with flat sides and the big rivets
i could go on for days......

done (nothin special):

gvsr hopper
bnsf hopper (fresh paint)
solid cold/gold X3
MEC (gillford)
old school BAR with the logo.

[magotsofdef]

this isnt maggots....its turbo dog...i am at maggots house so for the record he didnt say this...

i think all this reefer hype is gay..i mean i have only hit tags on them, and never pieced one..i mean if i catch one in my lay ups i will hit it, but i am not gonna die if i dont hit one....i mean seriously if they are there hit it..if not paint that regular gay hopper instead....who cares,,i mean reefers do travel. but who cares.. i just like painting things that roll..i like short lines and local lines that stay in one area more...but if one reefer rolls my way i will slam it....maybe i am just hating cause i aint got one...but i got like 200 acfx and 100 gatx hoppers..which are a dime a dozen... S F R controls the southeast...

[hobo knife]

i hear ya there, i'm sure a lot of people would agree ...but it's not like kids are going to yards lookin for armns or icicles and then when they don't find 'em turn around and leave.(although that might be true if theres no boxcars period). Theres lots of cars that i've only seen roll through or just seen flicks of that i would kill to paint. I'll paint whatever i can get my hands on but if i can add another notch to my belt with a train i've never hit...i'll go outta my way to snag it.

my list above was comprised of cars i have hit 'round here and enjoyed...but i gotta say my wish list would definitley have a couple reefers on it.

[angry orphan]

fbox
texas mexican
western fruit express
GT flats... the realllly long ones
white trops

crushed em all....

[Gunm]

Reefers come through all the time where i hit up. it's like mana from heaven

[FR8HOUND]

auto racks
D&RGW FLATS
GVSR FLATS
ATSF
and these new maroon flats called, WCMX.., with a script like letter style..
, hell why are we only limited to 5?

[ghostvandal]

damn thats funny indeed, we all get different stuff and dream of normal stuff to other. I wish we could post pictures of huges lines of boxes that are for us normal but really exciting for others. I might start a thread in metal head in a few days. I got some pics of 30 flat cn and cv in a row, or 15 cpaa red cherry.. I would love to see lines of dozens of soo lines boxcars, or blue lw, flat cwn, stuff like that. I wonder if someone's got a yard full of flat ic.. I remember when the boss posted in one of his post his spot of reefers, there was like 2 lines of armn and western fruit express.. it makes you want to travel or at least dream about it..there's gotta be some nice short lines in Alaska.

ASER1NE do you have any flicks of ABOX?? I've never seen that..

[porque]

...an ABOX looks just like a regular RBOX only there is no panel because there is a plug door instead...they don't give you much room to paint...

[ghostvandal]

interesting..do you have a picture by any chance?

you seen these for sure, they're common as fuck. But in your neck of the woods, you'll see them restamped CNA like this one:

[ghostvandal]

ahh yes i've seen that restamped cn. thanks for the flicks fr8otech

[hobo knife]

i heard they're coming out with a zbox next. it's supposed to be a flat refrigerator...bright yellow with the jet black doors...

..although i might have just made that up...

but...does anyone know what the "f" in fbox stands for...or for that matter the "t" in tbox or "a" in abox...i'm assuming the "r" in rbox stands for rail.

[IRON HEAD]

Yea i personally hate the ABOX's fot the same reason stated, you don't have much room to paint due to the plug door...

[ghostvandal]

bah the door is good something to improve your can control.. if you do a good job it makes some sick result. Zbox..that'be insane. flat BRIGHT yellow reefers... im cuming

i though i was the only one who hated writers who get refers for this reason. They have them in my city but the spots are highly secured and the spots that are possible have no place reasonable to park.
im not gonna get caught slippin or walk 830 miles just to hit a reefer. so fuck all you motherfuckers who get reefers....there.
okay, so im a jealous, salty cracker..so what.

bump for local sand hoppers.!!
