dehusman, Found this site www.jim-fran.com this guy is restoring a wood roofed box car. His is like the prototype in my book( in appearence). The roof was constructed with two layers of tongue & groove pine planking, with the top layer staggerd over the bottom layers seams. The ridge was then capped with tin. <br /> <br />Thanks for your help. <br /> <br />http://www.jim-fran.com/dendronva/index.html This link will take you directly to the box car pics.
