An Italian railways coal rail car rests alongside a coal bunker, partially visible in the background. In from of him is a buffer, indicating this is the end of the railway line.
The rail car is in HO scale (1:87) by Lima, and it sits on Märklin rails and buffer. The light signal behind it is also by Märklin. To give you an idea of its dimensions: it's about 3.5x1.5x1.5 inch, or 8.5x3.5x3.5 cm.
I got it for close to nothing together with four other cars, and looked pretty beaten up. I decided to put the poor little bugger on central stage, because I think it's very photogenic! Besides, after a hard, working life, he deserves a place to rest in the twilight world of Rust and Steel...
It loos so real and just to think it's a miniature. Love it!!!!!
