Re: Ann Arbor Boxcar
Definitely ex-Wabash double-sheath cars rebuilt as steel-sheath cars. They operated in revenue service as AA 1100-series cars then became MofW/Company Service boxcars. Most were black as MofW cars

Mike – Thanks for the kind words. I stumbled into manufacturing because there were so few models of the period I had chosen – 1923. I knew little about prototype modeling, but you folks started
