Re: racks in a stock car 1940
Elden, my understanding is the racks were for transporting flats of tomatoes. No livestock involved. Certainly not poultry. Attached is an interior photo of the racks.

Folks;
Have any of you turned up any more on these cars?

Looking for a copy of the MDT reefer book
Hello,
I had, but now cannot find, my copy of the book on MDT reefers. In my mind I'm trying to remember if I loaned it out and never had it returned or misplaced it when I moved my books prior

Re: Photo: SLRX 4539 (Circa 1947)
Another interesting shot, Bob. I don’t recall seeing an end constructed this way as early as 1947.
Was this car in service in this scheme, or is this a builder’s image which was repainted after

That photo was the topic of much conversation when it first was posted on the Pitt site.
That and a group of adjacent photos were taken to document how utility improvements were

ABLC Brakes
This is a variation on the general theme of empty-load brakes: the idea being that a lesser braking force is applied when the car is empty. Earlier systems used two brake cylinders of different sizes,
