Possible renumbering of IC 170001-175000 boxcars
Mark Heiden
Hello everyone,
I'm looking for some information regarding possible renumbering of some Illnois Central bocxars, series 170001-175000. These are 40ft single sheathed boxcars with fishbelly underframes and composite ends. They were built 1914-1915. There is a photo on the pay side of the NEB&W website: http://railroad.union.rpi.edu/rolling-stock/Box-cars/40-foot-single- sheathed/T-M-7-panel-Howe/XM-ss-TM-type-IC-1919-cyc.jpg The NEB&W site lists these cars as off the roster by 1949. Is it possible that these cars were still on the roster at that time, but under a different number series? Thanks, Mark Heiden |
