I've been posting pictures on the morning thread of various cars and trucks by Danny Raymond. I thought I would post a thread to showcase his wonderful models.
If anyone has any of his vehicles feel free to post them here.
It will be interesting to see what layouts his creations are traveling.
All Raymo vehicles are my favorites. Here is one that travels the back roads of the Atlantic and Southern RR.

Great idea for a thread! Post away, guys. Is it true Dan will create a fleet of Raymo vehicles to the first five who post here? 😜
The pressure is on! :o
If I had any I'd be proud to post a few photos.....hint, hint, hint. ;D
How about I post a pic of a blank kit, and Dan has me post a pic of the finished Vehicle.

These two sedans were found on Bill and Kris Cutler's Pennsy Six Miles West of Altoona layout.

I'd love to see one of Raymo's vehicles "tooling" by on my New Haven freestyle layout. I might even be able to pay for it. Jim
Traveling Raymo vehicle!

Jim, I did a New Haven M.O.W. truck that ended up in Maine. I was happy with the way it came out till I realized that it should have been painted Dark Green, because only high rail vehicle's were painted yellow. The owner was happy anyway.
This traveling vehicle thing just might work. Should it be a "old retired couple" seeing the country or a "salesman selling his wares". Maybe a truck and trailer doing delivery's from layout to layout. Let me think this one out and see what I come up with. Stay tuned....... ;)

What about Raymo's taxi service? I hear that guy will drive anybody anywhere on time & with a smile and also heard he'll even let you stop for lunch!!!
Looks like I need to get on your list. I could use a vehicle or three for my little layout Dan. ::)

Great ideas! Being four years 'till retirement and just off our Maine jaunt I love the oil' folks idea. ;D
I'd missed this thread previously - been kind of a hectic summer.
I'd post photos of all my Raymo vehicles below, but, you know, I don't have any....
(hint hint)
You need to let us know what era your new layout will be.
Hi Dan. I would be interested in purchasing a Raymo vehicle era anywhere between 1930 and 1950 for my freelance New Haven layout. I have a birthday coming up next month and I am sure my wife would love to give it to me. Jim

Jim, I sent you an email.
I thought I posted about 40+ Raymo vehicles. I then remembered I put them on the morning baggage car posts.
Sorry, let me just claim old age and CRS.
Here is another go at this thread.

The Dairy Truck is actually a Sheepscot.

WOWSER! Dan, you are do man.
Tom ;D
I got the idea from a photo of a similar bus in a junkyard out west. I also tried to put some uniformed soldiers for the seats but they were no longer available from Prieser.
Looks great Dan!
I sure hope it makes its way safely from Altoona to Orlando and doesn't get lost along the way. ::)
Dan
Your vehicle builds are a great inspiration. Very nice modeling my friend.

Bob,
If the Army bus doesn't make it back, I won't let you build anymore structures. That should scare you cause it sure scares me! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

You all better hope it doesn't run outta gas on my railroad. It could be a long time before I filled it back up.
Great modeling
Thanx
Bob

I've bounced around some ideas of changing era, but the pending arrival (and preorder of 4 ...) of the Bowser Central Vermont/Grand Trunk (NEL) RS-3s are keeping me pretty firmly planted in October 1954.
Now I know. See ya at the EXPO!
