Paul C. Koehler asked:
"Does anyone on this list have a good side view of this car for lettering purposes. Mine is now painted and I would like to decal it correctly." Rich Christie replied: "Paul, Hopefully this helps. This is a one of a kind car." http://prr.railfan.net/freight/freightphotos.html?photo=BuildersPhotos/X30_59861_A34_BillLane.jpg&fr=clX30 http://prr.railfan.net/freight/classpage.html?class=X30 First, NO DASHES IN PRR CAR CLASSES. Second, the builder's photo helps to letter the dimensional data, but it does not accurately portray the car in service as the "EXPERIMENTAL" reporting marks were repainted "PENNSYLVANIA" after testing was complete. See Bruce Smith's article in The Keystone Modeler, Issue 37 for in-service photos. Ben Hom |
