X23 lettering
I recently applied decals to a Westerfield HO scale X23 boxcar kit. The process took longer than expected due to prototype lettering changes that occurred just before my 1926 era. It's the latest post

Re: Rail Dates Information
Don Valentine points out that I put “AB” instead of “K” on the prohibition date reference.
Thanks, Don.

Re: Accurail kit 4498
Jeff Otto has a model in that paint scheme on his layout. Must be an older Accurail release? The current one appears to has white stenciling? Now that I no longer have the car from the photo it looks

Southern Pacific Composite Gons
Hi all,
Hoping to get some help from the SP experts on the list: were the herald and lettering sizes standard on SP composite gons in the depression/WWII era? I'm building an O scale SP 46XXX series

Re: The Great Yellow Fleet
I found the same thing in the book Men of Erie published just after WWII.
I hope you didn't pay full price for that book. there are better ones on the market.

I purchased this book on eBay, and discovered that pages 163 thru 170 repeat. Presumably two sheets each containing these pages were laid over each other and folded, cut and sewn into a signature and

Re: Westerfield NB box car
Nice work, Clark. I need to build several of these in my stash. At one time there were more than 30,000 of these cars (and variants) in-service for a few decades.

Re: Rail Dates Information
Schuyler,
Check the group Files section for AAR Interchange dates. I think that will satisfy most of your needs. When Files opens up, click on Type until you see Files listed in the column.
