what i find interesting is it is listed as a non profit @ $100 a share and only tranferable only to other railroaders? was this an early attempt at humor? ;;-)

Oh that had to be a s**t job unloadinrg one of those ;-( mel perry

out of curiosity, has it ever been mentioned how many people were required and how long it took to manually unload a boxcar loaded with grain? thanks mel perry

anyone know anybody in winona, mn that we could find more about this gem? ;-)

wonder what happened to it? ;-)

gives rise to the question, what was the last load, and what load was intended for loading, that required an interior wash down? especially since one of the cars is a GN boxcar just thinking out loud

kevin; if you belong to the nmra you can have their library make copies for you, probably cheaper than epay ;-)

lstch bar? ;-)

all: never mind, my bad, don't ever trust cell screens, TREES, AUGH ;-(

bruce: air has visible crinkles and wrinkles? ;-)

what is on top of the car roof? ;-)

aluminum foil on top of the roof, outside

bob: any explanation for the sheet foil on top of the car? thanks ;-)

i was thinking the same thing, no dims? ;-)

thank you eric, you saved me the comment hindsight 20/20 would provide a larger audience ;-) mel perry

not in its present condition, no brakes, no.reporting.marks, damage to the side door frame, it looks like this thing is sitting on either a deadline or a rip track ;-)

any particular reason, that the 2-8-0's were shipped built from the factory, and the 2-10-0's were shipped in kit form to the POE, and then assembled? thanks ;-) mel perry

still interesting, that it wound up in the backwoods of oregon? ;-) mel perry

those ARE refrigerators ;-) mel perry

bud: didn't john do a version with the seam? the rest would be a standby foobie ;-) mel
