Lumber Door


radiodial868
 

Anyone have a photo that shows the detail of boxcar end-wall Lumber Doors? 
I'm creating a 3D master of a single-sheathed boxcar and am struggling with how the door latched in the closed position, namely the wall mounted latch/clasp portion. Attached is the best photo I have of the prototype. I have the original Pullman drawings, but for this detail they say to go see some other unattainable fabrication drawing.
Thx,

Do you have anymore pictures of the posted WP SS 40' box car? Color ones are super appreciated.

Dear Mr Dial
I would be very interested in your car if you choose to make it available. You say you have Pullman drawings.
Could I ask for the drawing number?

Thats's the only color photo I had other than the Jim Eager Book photos.  Photos are hard to come by as I guess the ol' Wobbly was not well photographed.
The TS MoW car at Portola was the best source of detail information.
