While a few details may need modifications, the SSA D&RGW 40'IL, 8'IH Fowler
car is accurate for (or a valid starting
point for,) modeling the following car series:
CNW 100000-104998 (even numbers)
CNW 109000-109998 (even numbers)
CNW 121000-124998 (even numbers)
CNW 137200-141198 (even numbers)
CMO 31200-34198 (even numbers)
D&RGW 66000-67499 (actual model prototype)
M&StL 18000-18998 (even numbers)
M&StL 28000-28202 (even numbers)
M&StL 51500-51798 (even numbers)
MR 3021-3049
RF&P 2251-2450
CRI&P 40700-42199
CRI&P 42200-44699
CRI&P 44700-45699
CRI&P 45700-46199
CRI&P 46200-46699
CRI&P 133000-133999
CRI&P 157500-158699
All told, this comes to nearly 19,000 cars. Compare to the 25,000 USRA single
sheathed box cars built. Even as late
as January 1953, over 3,500 of these cars were still operating across North
America.
I too look forward to this model being released.
