Re: CofG ventilated boxcars

Bill, do you have dates for when this roof change took place? There's information that says that the roof was replaced on these cars but no specific dates can be found. I appreciate the constructive criticism on the kit. The Central of Georgia Railway Historical Society's goal is to be as accurate as possible on a project of this type. Do you, or anyone else know if a drawing exist for the Murphy roof as applied to these cars? It's highly possible that if the information can be located that a future run of these cars could incorporate the changes discussed here. Thanks for your help. Todd Horton

The model has the Murphy XLA roof that many cars built in the same era had. Bill Welch Yahoo! Groups Links |
