Re: [BRHSlist] Sand Car Model or What Is It?

["Cynthia & Duncan Cameron" <d.cameron@s...>]

Paul, according to Bulletin #20, 181550 was the first of a batch of 350
covered-hoppers built in Havelock in 1958. It did have eight square loading
hatches and riveted braces and was an AC&F-design cement/sand car many of
which were lettered for return to Wdron or Ottawa. The bulletin actually
has a builder's photo of that car. It should have the post 1958 block
gothic "Burlington" rather than the script slogans, but did appear in
mineral red with the lettering and herald all in white.
Merry Christmas,
Duncan Cameron
