Hi List Members,
Oh, forgot to mention, the fact that these are the only gondolas listed
under Carnegie Steel in this ORER makes me think they may have been intended to
be interchanged and used for mainline service, not just for in-plant
service.

I have some more info on the 65 foot gondola CSCO 534... listed under
Carnegie Steel Company, it is part of series 526-537 in the Dec 1930 ORER.
See info at the link below.
In particular, “Note A” references these cars and sez “Cars in series 526
to 537 marked C. S. Co., Homestead Works”. The notes further indicate “Make
separate reports for cars marked ‘C. S. Co., Homestead Works’ to Wm. Donald,
Auditor, Carnegie Building, Pittsburgh, Pa. June 1930”

The car sez HOMESTEAD WORKS on it, this indicates Homestead Steel Works
which was bought up and integrated into Carnegie Steel.

it be Cambria Steel? They also built freight cars.
