Those CNW stock cars are my favorites. Thanks Bob!
Does anyone know what type of roof these cars had? There's a photo article about stock yard at the CNW site which shows what I think is an early Hutcheons roof with 2 reinforcement creases instead on the usual one. Was this the type used on these stock cars?
Ed, you have to differentiate the 36' stock cars built new for the C&NW in the 1920s, which had board roofs, from the 40' stock cars which were rebuilt after WW II from single sheathed box cars, which had Hutchins roofs.
