GN fluted passenger cars

[7j43k]

GN did have passenger cars with "corrugated sides".  Coaches were bought from the Frisco in February 1966, and were numbered 1072-1075. 

Here's a shot of 1073:

I am no expert (on anything) but I believe you are correct.  There is a modest amount of fluting on the upper part of the side of the Great Dome cars, but not really corrugated sides per se.  But I do believe that GN had some cars that originated with the CB&Q.  Thus I cannot rule out a car with GN lettering that has Q style corrugated stainless steel sides.

This is a useful site that you might already be aware of

The Tenshodo 1960s shorty imports nonwithstanding, after a moderate amount of research, I don't believe GN had any corrugated-side passenger cars. Any experts know better?
