There is no other word for Smokebox Graphics' PM freight car and caboose decal set than "excellent". It contains lettering for PM flat cars, covered hoppers, 40- and 50-foot boxcars, 40-foot gondolas

Re: Photo: Hopper Car At Fish Company
But John, the car in the photo CLEARLY has an inside height well in excess of 2’-11”. Based on the men in the photo, the IH must be more on the order of at least 6’-0”.

Re: Photo: Hopper Car At Fish Company
An oyster car would have a roof, which this one doesn't.
There were coal hoppers built to a similar design, although the ones I've seen were much smaller.
These had the dump doors tucked way up under

Re: Photo: Hopper Car At Fish Company
I think that the car in question may indeed be a Northern Pacific coal car, but with a 2' 11" IH, this probably isn't the right series. Height of the sides in the photo appears to be in the 5' to 6'

Re: boxcar roof mystery
Craig,
You may already have the answer as I am just now reading a few days worth of messages I jumped over. But starting with WAB 89300, the roofs were the diagonal panel type.
