I suspect that your photo was a company photo, taken at Havelock, of the first of the class. Just a slight discrepancy between the date of the photo and the construction date on the car.

Were the wood sides a wartime economy measure?

Greg - I can contribute the attached three-quarter side image of CB&Q 221500 taken in March 1943.

 

What is the original car number for the ballast hopper your group has restored? Best Regards - Louis
