Garrett, at least some of the F41's decks look somewhat different as

converted some F41's into bulkhead flats and this photo I have may

be

one of those with the bulkheads removed. There are lots of holes in
the steel for attachments!

I found a late shot of one on the PRR freightcar page:

Can anyone confirm this as an "as built" arrangement for the entire
F41 or part of the F41 class?

The options are do this with styrene or take the lazy way out and
build a load that covers the bulk of the car <grin>.
