DECO ends

greg kennelly
Can anyone direct me to a drawing or direct end view photo for the DECO ends used on the C&O 5400 series 10'-0" IH box cars, please? I would like to model one of these cars in N Scale using the IM 10'-0" 1937 AAR box with the Des Plaines Hobbies Viking roof but will need to fabricate the DECO ends. A search of my available CBCs (1928, 1931 & 1946) did not turn up anything and I also didn't find anything in the Files or Photos sections. I have found an online 3/4 view photo but would like to find a more direct end view, if possible.

There is a diagram in RPC 35. Don’t recall if it is dimensioned. I noticed it looked for the Pullman roof yesterday. Brian J. Carlson

Thanks, Brian. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of RPC 35.

Thank you for that. I have the C&O magazine that this was taken from but who knows if I would have found it. Intermountain was going to do these in N-Scale a few years ago but they didn't get the require number of reservations. I have my doubts if they ever would. -- John H.
