New Haven 36' (rebuilt) boxcar series


Ray Carson
 

What series are the 36' boxcars for the wood steel-reinforced ends? According to Funaro & Camerlengo they were renumbered 150000-169999 when they were but there is a photo of steel-end 36' boxcar with 72000 numbers when the archbars were replaced. I'm aware of the removal of the "1" in front when they replaced the archbars but were there more than the 150000-169999 series or did F&C mess up somewhere?

Hello, Ray...
Here is a spreadsheet tracing all the series of NH 36' box cars as initially built, then rebuilt, then retrucked. I believe you will be able to answer your question(s) from the data. This spreadsheet is also in the files.
