True. I’m aware of that, but by my 56 era the m-15k were rebuilt again to the M-15n in 55 and 56. Based on the orer there were very few K’s left.

The M-15k was the subject of a Chicagoland mini-kit, so there's quite a bit of information including drawings among those files. I know nothing about the M-15n.

What was the difference between the two B&O wagon top rebuilds? Based on a review of freight car diagrams, it appears the underframe was rebuilt to a straight center sill using Z sections versus the fishbelly center sill of the earlier rebuild.

Were there any other changes? Specifically to the superstructure.
