D&H 36' Box Cars
Hey guys, or girls, anyone have photos of D&H 36' box cars? Post war is preferred but any showing the various end upgrades will do nicely. Looking to do a mild upgrade of a pair of Accurail cars and

Last two times I went to the Santa Fe Society webpage to buy your book, Stephen, I got the message "cannot complete your request at this time." Any suggestions?

Bob,
How about Albin Burrows article "36-Foot Harriman Standard Stock Cars" from MODEL RAILROADING for January 1989?
There were also several similar articles in MODEL RAILROADING and RAILMODEL

I think I showed these once before, but maybe on the Resin list. I spent quite a few hours crawling on and under the 12k and 13k series when in MOW service as part of a project to build the 12k

Re: Car ID just for fun
I don’t think that there are kits for the C&O cars. They were rebuilds of double sheathed cars from the mid 1920’s that were done in 1941 and 42 to add steel sides and door and a half.

Re: Photo: Intercolonial Railway Flat Car 15377 (Undated)
Hi Bob,
An interesting car and an interesting railway. Looks like the photo was taken with a few years of 1901.
Anyone have any thoughts as the location and the structure behind the car?
Pax,

Re: Group of automobile boxcars May 31, 1949
Also be aware that in Pensacola that Frisco interchanged cars with the L&N for the Port of Pensacola. Could be cars headed for the docks.
