ATSF "B" End of FE-22 Autocars
|
Thomas Olsen <tmolsen@...>
List:
I am looking for a photo of the "B" end of a Santa Fe FE-22 double door box car. Photos of the "A" end with the end door are in the books, but no "B" end. There are photos of the "B " of the FE-23 and FE-24 in the Santa Fe publication " Furniture and Automobile Box Cars" which Richard Hendrickson had authored. Apparently at the time of publication, Richard did not have a photo of the "B" end available either. I have searched through all the Warbonnets and its' predecessor, the Santa Fe Modeler with no luck there either. Can anyone tell me if the "B" end of the FE-22 (ribs, brake gear, ladders and grab irons) are the same as that of the FE-23 and Fe-24?

Tom, Owning 2 Sunshine mini-kits, the Fe-22 and Fe-23 have the same ends. The Fe-24 has the 1937 ends, the 22/23 have the squashed Dreadnaughts. Rich Christie

Many thanks for the help in regard to the "B" end of the ATSF FE-22. John Johnson is in the process of building the F22 and since he does not have internet access, I was asking for him. Thanks to your information, I will copy the photo and forward it to him so that he can complete the car. Best regards, Tom Olsen

Tom,
And lean on JJ !!! For years we've been trying to
get him to get on line. At least point him to the Franklin library.

I don't know….
maybe that's the reason John seems to get so many models built. Marty McGuirk

TIM The Fe-21's and 22's were rebuilt in 1940. Sunshine has a minikit #22 that shows the B end of a Fe-21 50' single door boxcar. That end should be the same as a Fe-22. If you go to the Sunshine website and download the PDF file you should have a picture of the end. Al Smith

Fe-22 Boxcars Sunshine made a minikit for a Fe-21 50' single door boxcar. At the website you can download a PDF file for minikit #22 it has a picture of the end of a Fe-21, it is the none brake wheel end but the Fe-21's didn't have auto doors. Al Smith
