Re: Terms For Freight Car Parts

You know everytime this subject comes up, and it does seem to be often (perhaps because I loathe it) I ask myself how does this improve/enhance my modeling? I respect the use of the terms -- proper -- but when I am talking shop with the crew models terms see to mean and the use of the terms really don't improve the finished model. When I give a clinic I try to focus on the proper, likely because schools in. Greg Martin Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

But I never used the word "proper" nor did anyone else in this discussion to date. But I do get your point. I already knew the Master Car Builders preferred running board(s). Maybe somebody else has an authoritative reference for roof walk. (Athearn doesn't count.) Sill step vs. stirrup I wasn't so certain about and you appear to have a strong reference source.
