Are you sure this isn't a scam for getting your bank account information? I've heard nothing like what you said from ebay. Richard Townsend Lincoln City, OR
-----Original Message----- New subject, but since a lot of transactions for steam era freight cars are made on ebay, probably by all of us, this might be important:
Ebay announced today that they are going to change the pay process - now, payments will go directly to your bank, not to your PayPal account: no more PayPal processing fees. That sounded good until I read further - ebay wants your bank account information.
In light of recent events, does that concern anyone?
Thanks Pete

Re: Photo: SP Flat Car 43595 With Transformer Load
There are no 70t, 1400000 lbs capacity flats listed in either the 7-37 or 7-39 ORER's for SP.
Tony may need to chime in here but I think SP got it's first 70T flats in 1940, if memory serves and I don't have to rush to find Tony's book. Dan Smith

Re: Photo: SP Flat Car 43595 With Transformer Load
From the 7-37 ORER
FM flat all steel 43191 to 43690 100000 lbs. capacity 497 cars note PPP 120000 lbs. capacity 2 cars 43386 43595 There are 2 other notes listing changes in capacity - both from 80000 lbs to 100000 lbs. and from different # series. From the 7-39 ORER FM flat all steel 43191 to 43690 100000 lbs. capacity 495 cars There are no notes for special capacity flat cars listed in 7-39 ORER for this # series. I'm sorry but I don't have any ORER's between these. There may have been a second capacity change on the 2 PPP note cars from 7-37 and a 10-37 or there abouts ORER might show if that is the case.

I agree with Garth and Bruce.
The leaf-sprung trucks look like they were once under a steam locomotive tender. Someone at SP must have determined the F-50-12 underframe could handle the transformer's weight. But why not just use a 70-ton flat car? Length too long? Brian Leppert Carson City, NV

Re: Photo: SP Flat Car 43595 With Transformer Load
Garth, Folks,
Photo taken 4/8/1937. Reweigh 3/37. That supports a reweight immediately or nearly before loading this transformer. 😉

The number puts it in the F-50-12 series. I suspect it was a special conversion, maybe just for this movement and it was later returned to general service. Otherwise, why it was not renumbered or reclassed, I can't say.
This looks like a job for Tony to explain.
Yours Aye,
Garth Groff 🦆
The flat car is clearly stenciled above the left hand truck "CAPY 140000", making it a 70 ton capacity car.. So it can't be a F-50-12 class flat car, can it?

Remedy, in part:
Set up a separate bank account that you use only for Ebay transactions.

Andy and Claus, If you blow this picture up, you will notice the narrow gauge car has traction couplers and fenders. Yes, it is likely a LARY car. Yours Aye, Garth Groff 🦆
