Bob;
You are certainly one of the most prolific posters on this on and my other groups! That's NOT a complaint, it is praise! While many of your posts, or rather, the subjects of your post are of little interest to me personally, I am but one person in this and those groups. So even though I don't view each and every link, I DO appreciate you taking the time to share them with us! You are very generous doing so. I hope that you continue to share your discoveries with us, I'm very grateful, here, and on our other groups! Again, Thank you very much! Take Care,
Brian R. Termunde

Bill,
I may be able to help you, but I will have to dig some, and I probably won't get to that until Monday. Todd Sullivan

Tiny little coupler with no draft key; the coupler shank was riveted to the yoke in those days, With a piece of flat bar stock bolted to the wood sills for a carry iron. Dennis Storzek

NYC car, possible tank car? Possible weed sprayer? Possibly rebuild from a steam loco tender?Diesel fuel car according to the description. That's consistent with the hose and nozzle hanging on the side. Speculation, but I suspect that's a caboose underframe. The sand car does appear to be built on a tender frame. Jack Mullen

Vicksburg, Shreveport & Pacific -in 1926, it was leased to the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad, and merged into the Illinois Central Railroad in 1959.
Please note that it is a ventilator car.

Re: Photo: B&O Boxcar In MOW Service

Bob,
The car number on the "A" end appears to be 277296. I believe that car would be classed as a M-26(D), according to a table in the B&O Modeler No 47, p. 49 (Summer 2018). That issue is still available online.

There's a rare one: auto-box version of the Americanized Fowler/Dominion car. CI&W 19201-19300 built by Haskell & Barker in 1916, became B&O M31a 190300-190397.

Hi David,
I was wondering that also - not many railroads used
peaked ends this early, so this is a bit unusual, not just for the NYC system,
but for the date overall.
I can recall that C&O had quad hoppers built
with peaked ends in 1929, and I think N&W was doing peaked ends on
conventional coal gons and on hoppers by that date. That's all I can think of
right off.

Image of CTH&SE 370758 hopper in 1933
Claus Schlund \(HGM\)
Hi List Members,
Image of CTH&SE 370758 hopper in 1933. This is
the Chicago Terre Haute & Southeastern - we don't normally think of MILW as
operating east of Chicago (at least I don't) but it was a MILW owned subsidiary.
I saw a wreck photo once of a CTH&SE twin hopper on the RUTLAND - so
clearly they got around, at least occasionally!?!
Enjoy!

Huh, didn't know there were ever any peaked-end gondolas anywhere in the NYC system.
