Re: Air Force gondola

Tim,

The US Army Ordnance Depot south of Baltimore had what appeared to be an old USRA (or later knock-off)flatcar in their yard for years, archbar trucks included. I got the B&O Museum interested in it, thinking it may have been an ex B&O car, since this was their connection to the world. We all were surprised to later find out the car was ex Texas & Pacific!

That's a long way around the barn yard to say the Air Force gon could be from anywhere. MBuckelew hoghead32

Any guesses as to the original owner of this gondola? It could
be USA but it might be second hand... it kinda reminds me of L&NE
low side cars.
