The more I learn the less I seem to know! I was wondering is there any definitive source of info for old 40' box cars to make sence of the myriad of different types of roof, end and door configurations. I know what some of the doors are caled, but I frankly don't know a "dreadnaught end" when I see it, nor do I know the different roof names. (It used to be so easy to model before I started having to know the difference) PLEASE! is there a place to quickly/easily learn the different types. If not... Hey that might make a GREAT MR series! One that real modelers could actually use (instead of oggling at someone elses layout). bashermax@hotmail.com
