On Train Orders, there is a thread related to the Sand Traps on the Budd-built cars of (approx.) 1952. The first plan having them that I have seen was the BURLINGTON, and they lasted into the CZ SILVER LOOKOUT (which had other differences from the original CZ Obs). The FLOWER cars, the 6-5s, 10-6s and such built in this period all have the filler hatch on one end (both sides in front of (or read of) the truck (toward the end)). On underfloor/underbody equipment drawings, these are noted as "Sand Traps" - the location is at or nearly at where the vacuum attachment was located on later cars, and the hatch is located at (or nearly at) the location of later lighted number boards. This was during the flirtation with electric brakes, and I wonder if that had anything to do with it. This seems like the CZ water tanks on the baggage cars, something not normally considered, and rarely seen "in action". GN cars also had these traps. Anyone have first hand knowledge of these systems and how they were used? .Bob Webber ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
