Re: Rutland flatcar with trailer load
Marty and Friends,
The article was indeed by Richard Hendrickson, and is found in the August 1993 RAILMODEL JOURNAL. Richard said this was the only close prototype he could find for the Athearn 40'

Re: Rutland flatcar with trailer load

Re: Caboose A vs. B End Orientation Question
It appears the orientation of the brake cylinder was unchanged. The cylinder is concealed by the battery boxes, but photos in the Burlington Waycars book of cars with the boxes and wagon wheels

Rutland flatcar with trailer load
Here is an interesting image. Shows Rutland 2700 flatcar with two short Freuhauf trailers, being delivered in Des Moines IA. I don’t have a date, but would say circa 1920.

Re: Caboose A vs. B End Orientation Question
Nelson,
I can't speak for the CB&Q; but Wabash cars had the brake cylinder pointing toward the short (cupola) end.

I’m working on two waycars (Burlington usage), and I need to know which end is considered the A and B end where the cupola is offset from center. Specifically, I’m building two CB&Q NE-10 steel

They look like the PRR 70-ton "Crown" truck, kissing cousin to the USRA 70-t Andrews. Consistent with the CAPY in the pic (and ORER).
