Stating from memory w/o researching the Old field manuals; I seem to recall the rule was 1964 for new equipment and a several year phase in period for existing equipment. Also I recall that if the ladders and hand brake were lowered so there was no access to the roof,the roof walks could stay.

There were many cars still equipped with full ladders,high hand brakes and roof walks well into the 70s. Climbed up more than a few. Even. Watched a Condr walk across the tops and down a ladder to check a journal on a car while moving along, only once.

It appears that this photo was later than 1967. I don't remember when they outlawed running boards, but the ladders on are side are cut short. 

When did the RR's drop running boards and shorten ladders?
