Re: Susquehanna 40’ boxcars c1940-48
Hello John and FC Group!
The ERIE's 93000 series of nominal 36' inside length XM boxcars are of no relationship to the older 'Fowler' ERIE cars. The former were built in 1920-21 by Standard Steel

Re: Removing mold from a railroad print

I presume, Fenton, that the photo depicts a steam era freight car, at least?

Re: Susquehanna 40’ boxcars c1940-48
As a follow-up, I model c-1955 so I have a detailed NYS&W freight roster for that time period (1954-1958) with notes. The notes indicate that Suzy Q originally had 500 Fowler box cars listed as

Re: Susquehanna 40’ boxcars c1940-48
In January 1948 NYS&W had 49 - 36' IL boxcars. The number series they were in was 1500 to 1563, so they probably had 64 or more cars originally. My understanding was that Erie bought over 1,000 of

I've seen a couple of photos of former LV double door box cars rebuilt with a single door with the old lady billboard Susquehanna advertising.

Re: PM box car - unusual ends?
Tim and Armand,
A very useful categorization, at least if all of us used it. It needs to be expanded, and available somewhere in our archives.
Van Dorn ends?

Re: Susquehanna 40’ boxcars c1940-48
The 36 foot boxcars Don Valentine mentioned are shown in the January 1945 ORER as well.
Although after the 1948 time period end about which you asked, the next ORER in my accumulation is from July
