Re: A few reefers unloading produce in Chicago
Scott, i think the cabover truck is not? Looks to me like a regular truck with a van parked beyond it facing the camera. Is that what you were looking at? Or did I miss seeing the truck you are

Re: Bobber 2 Axle caboose late usage
Bob,
I am most familiar with this subject as it relates to the PRR, in no small part due to Bob Johnson's outstanding PRR Cabin Car book.
The downfall of the 4-wheel bobber can be directly correlated

Re: Bobber 2 Axle caboose late usage
The earliest bobber retirement I know of was B&O in 1913. The CB&Q retired their two classes of bobbers in the late 1930s. I don’t know of any bobbers in use after that.

Bobber 2 Axle caboose late usage
Wonder about accounts of late (late 40's to mid 50's) usage of the shor 4 wheel bobber cabooses?
I dont expect road service to be in the min (local maybe) but know they still were used as yard

Re: Preserved cars in northwestern PA
There’s a cool 36-foot double sheathed box car on display beside US 19 in Meadville. It’s lettered for the B&LE but I think it was built for their sister line Union Railroad in the Teens.
