Have comprehensive stories ever been done on ART or MDT rolling stock (maybe in one of the society magazines)?
I'm surprised that an ART article never appeared in Ed Hawkins Cyclopedias considering ART's St. Louis area RR sponsership. Drips and drabs have appeared in several places including Westerfield and Sunshine data sheets and Ed's Cyclopedia.
Roger Hinman provided a lot of MDT information in MM and I have the book "Great Yellow Fleet" but I'm still a little fuzzy on MDT roster (relative numbers of each car). I think I've been overestimating the numbers of wood sided cars with metal ends.
Ed (and Ted) are good at finding pictures I haven't seen before from such high priced sources as the Smithsonian Pullman collection.
