Bud Rindfleisch
Hello,
Anyone know of existing drawings for the Mather 40' single sheathed boxcars? Mainline Modeler perhaps? Thanks in advance, Bud Rindfleisch

There was an article in RMC showing the "tall" 10' IH car-sorry I don't have the date but I think it was in the late 80's or early 90's.MRG for 12-1987 had an article with a lot of pictures but no plans,and MRG for 11-1987 had plans for the Mather stock car. Remember the stock cars had the same construction as the box cars-the steel frame Mather cars were highly standardised. The 1916 CBD had plans for the stock car also.MLM for 11-1986
had pictures of box car but no plans, and MLM had the stock car with plans in 9-1987. Hope this helps Larry King <lrkdbn@...>

In the fwiw column, the Pullman library has haskell and barker drawings for Mather stock, auto, refrigerator, vegetable, and beef cars. I didn't see one for straight box, but it may well be there.

Hi Larry, Bud, and List Members,
How about having a look at “The Mather Boxcar Draft Horse of American
Boxcars” in RMC Feb 1991 pg 85 by Martin Lofton. Has photos and drawings.
