Early MKT freight car lettering changes

Eric Hansmann
 

Freight car lettering was altered on some railroads when they reorganized or when new management arrived. Steve Hedlund shares details on early MKT lettering changes and how those can be used to determine a point in time. It's one of the elements we can use to anchor our model efforts in a specific era. Check it out on my blog.
