Fred Harvey Freight Car?
One of the Santa Fe books lists a Fred Harvey car (I think a rough drawing) but no one has every seen a picture. The question comes up on occasion but still no pictures.

Detail on CNW/CMO gondolas
SWAG but the term spear could mean just that, use a long rod to loosen the material inside so it flows out?

Jim, The proto87 folks used to have a brass 3-point suspension washers for cars. Now they just seem to have a plastic version. You might want to check that out.

Placards [Was: New Tangent Tank Cars]
OK so my new Tangent tank (GATX "Globe Soap Cincinnati") is filled with soap (maybe no soap). As it comes from Tangent the placard has nothing on it. As the car is "N.R." (I looked at the 12 pages) do

New Tangent Tank Cars
This is really starting to annoy me, specifically with top end cars. One should be able to order with .088 wheelsets. Tangent take note!

The new Tangent tank car
General question about placard decals. Are there any sets available for my era other than MS 87-975. For some reason it appears to me that the Microscale set is too new!

Presence of Canadian Cars
Unless they are cut up removing them why burn them. At a local lumber yard in N CA they are going for $40 a tie. Used for fence posts.

Thanks, for some reason I had never looked at the delivery schedule. Probably because I didn't find it easily. I'm guessing they had a lot of rework to do. I remember the maker seemed to think they di

Santa Fe Caswell gondola question
I don't know that answer. Would be good to have a photo of the inside of these cars.

This from the Westerfield site from their description; "solid floors were laid on top of the drop floors but the shafts were not removed." This would tend to say the floor was wood. I doubt steel plat

Eggs served rubbery.
I made a comment about this back in the eggs thread. However I used the term "water glass". For the younger group "water glass" was used to simulate water back in the early days of model railroading.
