Mike -

Thanks so much! This proves my first great hope, that these did indeed have Morton RB's; Having

the round hole

'texture' will make these even more visually arresting! Also, thanks for the confirmation of truck

style...

My DL&W diagram book is only good until 5/1/52, and these cars were built in September, 1956, so

I don't have a

DL&W diagram sheet for them. Can any of you confirm the type of running board, brake step and

brake wheel these

cars had? The E-L diagram sheet (#7-7) indicates an Ajax brake wheel, but no running board option;

I assume the Ajax

brake wheel was original equipment.

-------------------

The DL&W general arrangement drawings for this batch call for Morton running boards and brake

steps, Ajax hand

brake, A-3 Ride Control trucks and welded sides.

I missed that Branchline was offering these, so I'm looking forward to seeing one, though

they're too new for my

goals, post steam-era.

Hope this helps ....Mike Del Vecchio
