Title: Rider car lettering
Post by: Mark Baker on June 19, 2012, 09:47:30 pm

I'm having a senior moment.
Can someone tell me the size of the MONON, the herald and the numbers on the side of
the #8122x series of rider cars?

Thank you !

Senior moment!  Mark, I thought you were a spring chicken compared to me.  Let me search through my  diagrams, and while I do, can you remind me when the old car shops building disappeared (fire perhaps?).
thanks,
Jim Smith

Jim,
They are not far away. I'm practicing accepting those moments.
The fire was mid December 1968. It was probably the following summer that
they started tearing down the boiler house, smoke stack, blacksmith shop, old
car shop and finally, the transfer table. Thanks for looking for the lettering diagrams
for me.
