Re: 7' wide 10' IH Youngstown door for CRP XM-4
I think sectioning and removing one rib from Branchlne's 7' wide door on their 10'-6" AAR car is the best way. James

Re: IC 161722 Chcago, 1940's
Based on the “NEW 11-37” dates on the car, the new condition of the cars, and the snow visible, I’d say circa November 1937 is the date, not 1945. Nice picture, thanks for sharing.

Bob

I would have installed your old drive into the new box, and put a shortcut to your folders on the desktop.

7' wide 10' IH Youngstown door for CRP XM-4
Hi guys,
I just acquired a Sunshine kit for a CRP XM-4, but it was for the Superior door version. I want to make this car the Youngstown door version as there were more than twice as many. Does anyone

Re: Model Realistic Freight Car Loads, by Keith Kohlmann

You should address a question like this to BBFCL or the MFCL because it's a freight car built after 1960.

Here's what I've managed today.
On the CN car I added a retainer valve and line along with uncoupling levers to the ends and put some Archer rivets and Tichy rivet heads on the top door hangers, then
