Hello,

There's a photo of CB&Q 82253 on page 89 of the CB&Q Color Guide which shows 
an GM-4A gondola from the series CB&Q 822200-82549 with extended sides and 
ends.  There's also an on line photo of CB&Q 82231 on Jan Kohl's castle 
graphics web site 
http://www.castlegraphics.com/photo/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=44&pos=2 .

I'm thinking of modifying a Proto 2000 gondola to build one of these, but I 
don't know whether the extensions were added from the floor up, or attached 
(welded?) just below the original sides?  Information in Official Railway 
Equipment Registers indicate the extensions were 12" above the original 
sides and ends on some cars and 23" on others.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
