Athearn 50' single sheathed box cars


Tim O'Connor
 

Once more into the breach: Athearn has re-released the Roundhouse
single sheathed box cars. I recall these are ok for MP, T&P and WP, but
my question is -- are these correct for T&P and WP with steel doors and
MP with wood doors, and all of them with end doors? Also, I think that
the MP cars were rebuilt as single door cars by the 50's, is that right?

If you want to tell me to go dig out Mr. Hendrickson's opus from RMJ from
mumble-mumble years ago, that's ok too but I can't do it from work... I
think that article was what, 10 years ago now?
