It is unlikely any U S Army training with those box cars was done at Rockhill Furnace. Such personnel training would have been done within army facilities. The cars probably got there after the Army sold them as surplus, or for scrap, which is the reason I think they are there. If scrap prices can ever rise enough to cover the cost of their demolition and shipping with a bit of profit tossed in on top, they would be cut up and be gone in a heartbeat. A string of cars sitting like can become an 'attractive nuisance' to locals with potential liabilities. Ed Bommer ---In STMFC@..., <john.allyn@...> wrote: This is a topic that's come up before.

Rockhill Furnace seems to be a strange place to train, though.

Clark,
It is not for me to offer the kits up it is up to the contributors to do
that. The fellow doing the resin parts is willing to make them as needed and the
part will fit on any AAR 1937 car with a bit of trimming. Jim Singer is doing
the CNW/CMO decals and the Rock Island Historical Society has the Decals for the
Rock car and Microscale has the decals for the Santa Fe car.
I received and email from Chas last night and I told him if he feels
good about the car them I would go for it ; however, from what I have learned to
this point from John Greedy the FtDDM&S car came from the Rock as they had
different roofs matching the Rocks. I will learn more when I turn him loose in
the presentation. I have also finished the ends for the Santa Fe car and I am
working on the ends for the Wabash and Santa Fe 10' 4" cars for the Shake N Take
mid tern summer project.
There will always be folks who will buy resin kits rather than bash.
Are you coming to Cocoa Beach this year? You might want to sit in and get
the handout it promises to be a good presentation.

Re: 2014 SHAKE N TAKE Scope of project and sign up begins
Ron,
I have amassed quiet a few from several private sources for the
CNW/CMO, Rock Island, FtDDM&S, and then of course the Santa Fe cars.
Are you coming to Cocoa Beach? The handout will have some the SHAKE N TAKE
Yahoo Group will have lots more after they are uploaded.
Everyone who is planing on attending Shake N Take this January please try
to pre-register so we have a show of strength to the folks in Registration who
get uncomfortable this time of year. Tell them SHAKE N TAKE sent you
and your doing your part.
Thanks,

I'm also not sure of the era, since a quick check of ORERs shows that the CNW

Re: 2014 SHAKE N TAKE Scope of project and sign up begins
Ron Merrick asked:
"Were any of these CNW [65000-seires] cars sold to RI, as mentioned in the flyer? When? And did they get full repaint, rather than patch jobs?"
Yes, but leased, not sold. 500 cars were sold to US Railway leasing and leased to Rock Island in 1955 in the RI 38000-series and received full Rock Island paint jobs. A number of cars were also leased to the Roscoe, Snyder & Pacific in the 1960s.
Do not confuse the ex-CNW cars with the Rock Island's own 134000-series rebuilt USRA DS boxcars, which were rebuilt in 1936 and 1940 and featured 10 ft IH, 5/B/5/5 Murphy Ends, 8 Panel Sides, rectangular paneled Roof, 6 ft Youngstown Door. Some of these cars were leased to FtDDM&S in 1960.

Re: 2014 SHAKE N TAKE Scope of project and sign up begins
As is often the case, if you think about it longer you can answer some of your own questions.
This car kit was reissued. So the first one, which I have, is listed in sunshinekets.com as (Discontinued - very early kit) and the flyer is sun02a.pdf. Some history is given, and a photo of the model but not a prototype photo.
The second issue is also listed, and its flyer is sun64g.pdf. This time there is a photo of the prototype, although not good quality.
But, new questions. Were these cars equipped with vertical staff handbrake when first rebuilt? For CNW in 1937, it would seem likely. Did they keep same? The CMO cars were noted for being rebuilt again, and having the brakestaff replaced with a power handbrake.
Were any of these CNW cars sold to RI, as mentioned in the flyer? When? And did they get full repaint, rather than patch jobs?

I am not familiar with the Sunshine cars so I couldn't answer that. It may not be. Eventually all things merge into one and a river runs through it.

This is the official announcement for the 2014 Prototype Rails SHAKE N TAKE for our 14th annual event and in the words of our own Mont Switzer a "Bash at the Beach". This year with the help from Des Plaines Hobbies/Centraila Shops our project will be the 1937 rebuilt USRA Double Sheathed CNW/CMO 40-foot boxcars. The ends
will be a composite (resin) from rebuilt Tichy ends (thanks again to Don Tichy) and reproduced by Aaron Gjermundson as well as a drill jig for the hand rails and a fishbelly center sill and crossbearers. The donated kit comes from Des Plaines Hobbies/Centraila Shops and will include the correct IMWX 40-forty-foot boxcar with the Viking Roof. Archer Fine Rivets will contribute the rivet decals that will be needed to recreate a car for the CNW/CMO. 5th Avenue Car Shops is working on the CNW/CCMO white decals. Seeing how the ends will be useful for another rebuilt for Rock Island as well as the Ft. Dodge, Des Moines & Southern car SHAKE N TAKE will make available the compete resin parts to reproduce these cars as "aftermarket." We will also offer in the month following the event (read as mid February) we will offer ends for the Santa Fe's BX28 and BX31 rebuild programs from their owned fleet of USRA Double Sheathed cars. Jon Greedy will open with the documentation of the CNW/CMO and Rock Island and Ft.D.D.M,& S. cars and Richard Hendrickson will focus on the Santa Fe rebuilt
cars. The Aftermarket parts will have a separate sign up sheet. I will post the SIGN UP Sheet and AFTERMARKET Sheet separately. Eventually all things merge into one and a river runs through it.

Very same cars. We will not be doing the Green and Yellow CMO (2nd)

Rich,
Not likely as we have gone over this offline and matching the green and
making it opaque enough and the same for the yellow is just not in the
cards.
