As you suggest, I do intend to have around one-third SP cars among them. In addition to the car classes listed in the post we are discussing, there are the cars which came before the 1937 AAR cars, and as you mention, the 50-foot cars, which I separate into the single-door and double-door (automobile) cars.

I am looking forward to your future blogs on this topic.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />TomCM Auditorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03171947423186789232noreply@blogger.com
