Re: [CBQ] Status of Restoration of CB&Q Passenger Commuter Coaches 704 and 705

HI Charlie

I am confused as I have not found any photos of the cars they are working on.

I do have a photo of 6144 in green.

I think I sent it out before but will send it again if necessary.

Drawing is in my first book page 148  class PB20 I hope this helps.

You can see the lettering is of the earlier style on the letterboard.

Charlie,

 

704 and 705 are the numbers given to the cars when on the Ohio Central. Their Q numbers are 7114 and 7158 respectively.

Something doesn’t add up….

Their website shows they have two Heavyweight PB-20 Coaches….one with a fishbowl smoker (??) CB&Q nos. 6144 and 6148.   They mention they are “commuter coaches” and the blurb about the work being done states they will be repainted in Coach Green.  The seat frames look to be from PB-20 cars as do the windows in the view. 

Problem is that 704 and 705 are not heavyweights but Budd gallery cars…
