Your Canadian cars:
- CN 475916 was built by the National Steel Car Co of Hamilton, Ontario about 1937 (I will verify the date when I'm home later in the week).
Built by National Steel Car in 7/38. CN later rebuilt this car to 423271 in 4/72 as part of their 1960s-70s-80s boxcar refurbishment programs.
- CN 414593 is a Fowler car (a previous discussion on this group) built between 1917 and 1923 for one of the predecessores of the Canadian National.
More specifically, built by National Steel Car in 3/18 as CGR 552443.
