Re: Santa Fe Accurail kits

Richard,
ATSF rostered 70 ton 3 bays from at least 3 makers. Some of the classes were GA-43, GA-73 & GA-86 from ACF GA-77 & GA-81 from PSCM GA-100 & GA-109 & GA-121 from GAT Is the Accurail 3 bay hopper a match for any of these? I haven't seen one of these in the flesh. Only the pic on their website http://www.accurail.com/accurail/art/7500/7501.jpg I actually thought the Stewart 70ton 3 bay was good for one/some of these. http://bowser-trains.com/hocars/Stew_offset/Stew_offset_hopper.htm Now I'm wondering if these two models represent the same car. Or perhaps more correctly if the ACF, PSCM and GAT cars are of identical or similar design? Cheers Dave |
