Hi Bill,

Back in September 2020 we were discussing CB&Q XM-33's. You provided a list of several number series with great detail information. (Thanks!) 

You stated that 23000-23099 were built by Havelock 1954. I show this series as XML-1's built in 1955. I have a photo of 23024 that shows the car as built in 1955 as well. As you mentioned in your original post, the 15 odd XM-33's that got belt rails were designated XML box cars. My photos of 23000-23099 series cars both show DF logos, so I would assume the XML-1 designation might be more correct. Can you (or anyone else) provide any additional details on why we show different info?

BTW, my two photos show these cars in a Way of The Zephyr / Everywhere West scheme with 8' 6-panel doors.
