The rollingstock of narrow gauge colonial railways can be quite odd at times, with a tendency to make-do and come up with unusual combinations.

I just happen to have a large collection of wagon and carriage diagrams (official scale drawings giving an overview of a design) for the 3'6" gauge railways of Queensland Australia.

So here's a little thread of some fun or odd ones:

We'll start simple.
If you've got a lot of class H open wagons and need more class C covered wagons (vans) what do you do? Naturally you just build the rest of the van body on top and call it the class CH.

I am taking it back to the early days of the #web with a good ol' fashioned links page. If you are interested in being on it, here are the details: https://www.hpkomics.com/blog/links/

Anyone in the sphere of #comics, #writing, #education, #punk, and #oddities are easily welcomed.

Hello!

I've made an alt account for my taxidermy arts so here is where they will be posted!

Here's what you need to know:
This account is about posting natural beauty.
I will be posting vulture culture taxidermy here!
Unsure what vulture culture is? Vulture culture is an online subculture consisting of hobbyist taxidermist, getting it's roots from traditional taxidermy. The main difference is a vulture culture being, also known as a vulture, does not hunt animals for trophy, they rather instead collect and preserve remains of animals that have deceased naturally, by the roads, or left overs from hunters.
I am not against hunting as an entire, i'm against trophy hunting.
You can expect posts from this account containing images of bones, butterflies, dead things, forests, feathers, birds, etc.
All images will contain a content warning!
