Hi Bud,

The DL&W general arrangement drawings for these show 47' 0 3/4" over the buffers, while the top of the car from the ends of the running boards was 47' 6 3/4". The inside length is 41' 0 3/4", which might be where the two numbers came from in your source -- inside versus outside length. The 18020-99 had Barber S2A trucks; the first 20 had a variety of side frame drawings that I'd have to look up. Running boards were Apex. Always wondered if any other roads had this car ....Mike Del Vecchio In a message dated 04/05/09 11:33:26 Eastern Daylight Time, BlackDiamondRR@... writes:
Hello, I am looking for info, or plans for the Lackawanna RR 18000-18999 series covered hoppers blt in Oct '56. I have conflicting information on the length, one source says 41' another 47'. Any help? Thanks, Bud Rindfleisch |
