Re: Susquehanna 40’ boxcars c1940-48
The Susie-Q had 49 cars that were 36 ft. DOMINION cars by April 1948, never mind the Fowler car nonsense
as in the photos I have seen NO Erie Dominion cars used the unnecessary, and expensive, Fowler

Re: PM box car - unusual ends?
The end is made of three pieces and the fat part is where they are joined, either riveted or welded,
I can't tell for sure in the photo but it looks like they are welded.
Cordially, Don Valentine

heard "inverse dreadnaught" as

Re: Susquehanna 40’ boxcars c1940-48
I'm away from my '43 ORER, but I'm not sure if NYS&W had any 40' boxcars in the forties. They had ex-Erie 36' Fowler boxcars (Westerfield 4300-series kits). I'll look when I get home.
Al Brown,

Without knowing the proper nomenclature <g>, I would say it is a reversed 3-3-3 dreadnaught end.
