Proof at last
Warning, Warning, Warning.
To those who claim an N&W hopper did NOT cross Sherman Hill during the
period 1900-1960, prepare yourself for a shock.

Re: B&O flatcar decals
Hmm, They might. I located a supply for the car in question, but I imagine the herald in Ted’s set would be the right size.
I figure I should post a link to the car in

like prototype photos of their eventual transformation into the NP version.
As both Matt noted and Tim confirmed, as

Re: Anyone have any thoughts regarding an ID on this 40ft SS auto Box?
Hi List Members,
I swear, when I look at the car I cannot read a single letter on it! You guys must have better pattern-matching skills in your head than I do!
In any case, thanks for the ID.

Found three HO Wegmann Orange Hardware R-40-21 PFE kits
Hello-
Doing a clean-up, I came across 3 bagged kits for the PFE HO R-40-21 wood side/steel end and roof rebuilds. These are the same parts which Terry Wegmann supplied to Intermountain 12 years ago

Take another look at that Red Caboose Barber S2 truck. As I recall, the truck bolsters are lacking the two wedge shapes visible at the ends. Inside these shapes, the real trucks had the spring

Re: AAR Car Type Codes
There should be a full explanation near the back of 1967 ORER. Note that these codes have changed somewhat over the years, so you do want to look in an issue close to the era you're interested in.

Their previous model was deeply flawed, but evidently they sold enoughof
them to be able to afford to produce another. Let's hope they're notimmune
to expert advice.
