Re: Photo: Flood Damaged PFE Reefers
Hi Bob,
It is not the fact that some of the siding has come ff of these PFE reefers that I notice so much as
the way it has come off. If you look at both photos the cars all show a 4 and 4

Re: Carbon Black drawings?
Hi Bud,
You are aware, I presume, that someone offered a resin kit for the Cabot Corp. carbon black
cars. If memory serves I believe it was Steve Funaro of F&C.
My best, Don Valentine

Re: UTLX 96720
Tim, UTLX 96720 is from series 87658-99999, 11,251 gallons, type TPI. I'm not really familiar with the Kadee model's pedigree, as these are a bit outside my interest.
Hope this of use.

Re: Wanting to model accurate watermelon loads
Rick,
I, and my parents were born in Iowa, though I grew up in La-La Land (aka California). We ate a lot of watermelons when I was young, most of them probably coming from around Fresno. My parents

That is indeed an interesting evolution of customers. Did that come from CT1000s?
