I suffer from digital dyslexia. Todd Sullivan

Hi Tony, My brain and fingers have never had a strong connection. I found out when I tried to learn a musical instrument and again when I learned to type. I do proofread what I type, but misteaks slip

I found this note posted by Robert Burns back in 2007: "1954was the year SR "officially" changed the color of hoppers, flats,gondolas, etc. from black to "freight car brown/red", but it tookseveral

Interesting passenger car in the foreground.

Hello, I am looking for a photo, if anyone might know of one, of a flat car hauling a diner built by the Ward & Dickinson Co, Silver Creek, NY. I saw this in a Pennsy video awhile back and hoped

Garth, you don't need any archives on your computer. The Messages files at groups.io go back to 12/11/2000 (!). Dave Parker Swall Meadows, CA

The hoppers are USRA design triples, which Westerfield still makes in HO. Longacre is at the east end of Smithers (I actually have a book on Smithers). This was an area that produced good coking

From the looks of the freight cars in these images, it seems the Pennsy spit-shine crew wasn’t called into action on that G22 gondola. The NYC spit-shine crews sure kept busy on some great looking

The Boston & Albany cars in the third set appear to be carrying transformers most likely originating at GE’s Pittsfield, MA plant Roger Hinman
