Box car discovery

A prototype box car discovery is the latest blog feature. I’m sure local modelers know of this gem, but it was new to me! Eric Hansmann Media, PA |

The old NEB&W Guide says Rutland 6000-, 8000-, and 9000-series boxcars had 6/8 "innie" corrugated ends, where the similar (much more numerous) 1916-design NYC cars had 7/7 ends: so this would be a Rutland car. Dennis Storzek made kits of both.

Thanks, Dennis. I did not realize these were built later.
