Re: MA & PA SS boxcar

Brad Andonian asked: "I am seeking an image of these cars. They are ex-MILW and I wish to confirm the herald and lettering is yellow. The link below is obviously not the car, but may have the correct herald. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lima-HO-Scale-50-MA-PA-Box-Car-/382184322344 One car, M&PA 1155 (ex-MILW 710444), in service on the Ma & Pa in August 1944. Later converted to idler car X2 (3rd) in October 1970. I suspect this car was wrecked on the Ma & Pa and placed in revenue service after it was paid off. I really doubt this car received the herald in the example, as it was applied to steel boxcars after this car was rebuilt into X2. Ben Hom
