I really like the paint scheme. Now is this going to be a "Rider?" Thus you're not going to need scale handbrake wheels, hand holds, or other details?

No it's not a riding car. I built it specifically for show and to give my consist a little variety instead of just a bunch of flatcars. I don't currently have any plans to add a bunch of detailing (those detail parts are actually fairy expensive) however, someday I may.

Although I could fashion some hand holds out of some heavy gauge copper wire......

Fair enough. My friend Jim has his own little "Company" where he fashions grab rails and other miniature fixtures for miniature railroad modelers. I just see so much more potential for the model, that's all. I'm still impressed with your paint job.

do not..."hump" car?

Real life railroads use what are known as Marshalling or "hump" yards to quickly sort through freight cars on incoming trains and put the cars on their proper outgoing trains.

Basically an incoming train of cars is pushed backwards over a hill (i.e. hump) where cars are uncoupled one by one and let to run down the hill into the yard. As it rolls along it is switched onto various tracks until it couples into the proper train it's destined to leave on.

However some freight cars carry sensative loads (like explosives) or are very heavy (like coal cars) and would do damage if they coupled hard into a waiting train. Therefore they are clearly marked for railroad workers not to "hump" them.

Oooooh ok that makes a lot more sense

Yes, that is real: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/5575224/

I did much the same thing when I saw that...I'm just glad that I had my camera with me.

It is quite funny how words have their meanings changed over time, example of that would be batman and the joker's boner
