Hi List Members,
Awesome photo! I especially like the gondola closest to the camera – it has
a hole punched into the side, and the side plates are rusted thru near the
bottom.
While I cannot identify the gondola based on visible lettering, the
construction and the rivet pattern tells me it is definitely a PRR class GS (or
GS subclass) gondola

1977 Great shot, incredibly clear. But the mere thought of wanting to model that load gives me a very bad headache!
