LOVE the stock certificate idea Mikey!! 
It was fun to see the Gauge and the GERN cars roll by Les.
For my contribution I turned this $6.00 used and partly broken LHS backroom discount special...

..into this BB&G private car. Here it sits after having been dropped off at the interchange in preparation for a local fan trip. All forum members have full rights of ridership!

I used Microscale decals for the BBG designation and the car number but had trouble making custom Big Blue & Gauge decals with Testor's paper. The yellow letters weren't opaque enough to show on the car's blue body. I decided to make placards for the car sides with the railway name and the anniversary sign.
