Here we have a scratch built caboose built by Ed Meile of Elgin, IL. Also an elephant car from the Sparks Circus by Stephen Flint of Janesville, WI. Both pieces are in 1/24" scale.

Did you forget about Randy?
Or how he cut the tree down, and qrt sawed all the lumber down to 1/2" scale for you by hand? Made two trips to the paint store, uphill both ways, in the snow, so you could paint them by the fire so you wouldn't get cold? And hand sanded each small part, and then used steel wool till his little fingers were give out. When Randy should have been doing his school work as a boy, he would stay up late, and with only an old small file and a broken, rusty pair of tin snipes, he would make all the bull ring brackets, and drag shoes, from old cans he would collect on his way home.
