Hi Bob and List Members,


Bob, you have a very sharp memory!


Nice to see my conjecture has been proven correct - these ARE indeed UP gons!

Did steel mills also do fabrication?
I would have guessed not.

These steel gates were not made by any steel mill on the UP. More likely, the gons are from eastern carriers serving steel mill.

Hi List Members,


Gons with steel loads in 1932. I suspect these are UP gons, possibly in the series UP 99500-99999 48ft6in IL, can anyone verify (or refute) that this is the case?
