Re: GTW 50’ Auto Box
I have pictures of 10-6 cars. (They may be stenciled 10-4 because of interior auto racks.) I don't know of any 10-0 GTW cars.

Re: SAL Rebuilt Lumber Box Cars
Am I correct to say before bulkhead flats and center beams, the various “all-door” cars ("Thrall-door” was a perfect name!) had their “day”?
Maintaining all of those sliding and roll up

Re: LS&MS 'Red Line' double sheathed boxcar
Hi Claus,
Nice photo.
I’m sure a NYC Lines expert can say more, but the ‘D' before the number of LS&MS cars dates back into the 1870s and continued until between 1908 and 1910. The earliest

Re: SAL Rebuilt Lumber Box Cars
I do wonder if the impetus for this flurry of "double" sliding doors wasn't a new invention. Note that, somehow, doors were slid over other doors--an idea which might well have been new. And
