Yup. Deadline for the discounted price was the 12th (says he who just barely made it). SGL

I don't have good photos of these classes either, but it's clear from the diagrams in the Santa Fe Freight Car Folio that they were essentially the same as the other postwar Santa Fe three bay

Bruce, they look great. The C&OHS has two images of the M4 artillery tractors on flats on the NN-Hampton ferry. Al

I would say that segregation would be more likely than not. Tanks coming from a factory would generally be of one type, except for the early war period when several types were produced at the same

Wow, Cyril, they had officers for that? When I was in the U. S. Navy in the early 1950s we didn't need no stinkin' help from the officers. Richard Hendrickson

Tim, You have to email the staff at the Kalmbach Library. The email and a list of charges are listed on the NMRA website. I asked them to send me a list of all Great Northern photos, and a list

Um I have found this thread interesting. Wasn't the photo of Bruce's model from the CoCoa Beach RPM Meet, hence CCB? Brian Carlson

Robert, how did you know what was in the collection in the first place? Is there a catalog? Tim O'Connor

Hi Al, Sorry, "BLOT" means nothing to me. I took the Armor Officers Basic Course at Fort Knox in April and May of 1970, and by sheer dumb luck was never ordered to Vietnam. so long, Andy Andy

Al, I have no idea what "CCB" is, but since the original question from Clark was talking about my model, I can just give you a link to my photos <G>. Two Heiser M4A3s on a Bowser

Cyril, Absolutely! Look at the photo link posted by Kurt Laughlin http://lvaimage.lib.va.us/VTLS/SC/07/049.jpg The 1st-4th cars all appear to have single Sherman loads. The 5th and perhaps 6th

Dave, A quick look makes me think the spacing of the top rib placement is different on each car. A standard vs non-standard design ???? Fred Freitas David North

As a one-time tanker (but from a much later era), I can tell you that "CCB" in World War II army lingo means "Combat Command B." Most U.S. armored divisions of that time were divided into three

Elden, You did bag these flying pellets, didn't you? Nothing like the real item for making loads for cars. Bought an old blender at a yard sale for 5 bucks and it is great at making

Folks, Where is this CCB photo of a flat car with two Sherman tanks on it posted? Also, what is CCB? I've heard of CBC's (Car Builders Cyclopedias). Al Kresse
