Hi group,
I have a few of the 40' Branchline HO boxcars in the LV scheme.
According to the car diagrams I have, the box cars in the 61300-61899
series should have Murphy roofs and Dreadnaught 4/5 ends, which the
model does come with. However, the diagram indicates that these cars
were delivered with Camel & Creco doors, while the model is supplied
with 6' Youngstown doors. Since I am modeling the mid-50's, I was
wondering if any or all cars in this series received new doors at some
point after construction, or whether the model is slightly incorrect.
I was not able to find a picture of one of these cars in any of my
reference material or on the web to compare. Any thoughts are much
appreciated.
