The livestock car is a Wild West creation in brown and black, seen here

Hey you stole my idea right out of my head!  no exactly what i was thinking
of doing with mine, but mostly the same peices!  I was doing the same thing
one day a few months back, looking at a collection of odd brown parts!  I
was thinking a 8x24-30 stud flatcar modified to make a fenced in flatcar.
Its amazing how i've been thinking like alot of people lately!  well, i'm
off to see the wizard (not really, just poped into my head. I was going to
say off to work on my CNW covered hopper...).

Let's see.. brown train ends... lotsa fences... funky wing bits and a mess
of grills...  Brown screams for Wild West, and fences led me to the
livestock cars.  I traded away most of my log bricks, which would have been
very useful for just about anything with walls.

(who go to try out a jack hammer today!)

You do know that Lego makes brick separators, right?
