Hi Richard and List Members,
 
Also note the 5-5-4 ends. The three horizontal sheets appear to more or less line up with the end seams...

What caught my eye was the use of three horizontal sheets for the sides.

Use arrows and scroll on photo to enlarge it.
What caught my eye about this photo was that the car’s initials and number were stenciled on a board instead of directly on the car end. Perhaps the end rib design made that necessary.
I saw this before on FGEX 10857.
