I wonder if the missing angle cockbracket is the reason for the chalked note on the car side to “hold forinspection when empty”. As the note is dated 9/18/21, we have a pretty closedate for these

The A end is interesting, as the angle cock bracket is broken off and missing. The side views prove conclusively that the Enterprise type D hopper mechanisms are only on one side of the car during

DL&W 81297 is a 50-ton USRA twin hopper and one of 800 assigned to the Lackawanna by the USRA. DL&W 81000-81499 were built by American Car & Foundry with 81500-81799 built by the Pressed Steel Car

The ERIE WestRail car is taken. If anyone is interested in the resin castings for National Steel Car Co. ends for Canadian National cars built 1939-1945 and the instructions unique for those cars,

Friends, I don't recall if we identified this car in earlier discussions. It it a 10K UTLX X-3? Even with a blow-up and more contrast, I can't read the lettering but the layout

Yes, I checked the roster and there were no GS-5/7/8 gondolas assigned to C&S or FW&D, so it has to be CB&Q. Nelson Moyer Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2017 10:26 PM To: STMFC@... Subject:

Yes, it's a Burlington Route GS-5 or GS-7 with a Perfection power hand brake. It's not possible to determine which class without being able to read the road number. Nelson Moyer Sent: Wednesday,

I do require reading glasses, but I can't make out any of the letteringon the car clearly. In any case the car is clearly not a USRA gondola but it looks exactlylike one of the Burlington's composite

C&S reporting marks were "C&S." That's three letters. "CS" was Canada Southern. Richard Townsend Lincoln City, OR

Nope. The C&S didn't have any gons like this one. Q is a good bet. Especially since it's not Colorado. Richard Townsend Lincoln City, OR

So how do you explain only two letters above the road number if it's CB&Q? Nelson Moyer Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2017 9:54 PM To: STMFC@... Subject: [STMFC] Re: Some enjoyable steam

I enlarged the photo until it pixilated, and there are only two letters above the road number. That would be CS. Durango, IA is slightly NW of Dubuque and not on the Q, though those gons did

Here is a link to a different shot at Durango, IA from the University of Iowa collection that shows evidence of that bluff to the left. But my guess would still be CB&Q on the

Nelson lol - it's Durango, IOWA! (The limestone bluffs are kind ofa giveaway.) This is the Chicago Great Western line, now a rail trail. Dubuque, Iowais not far away, in the direction of the where the
