GREAT NORTHERN DOME CAR - N&W Class J 611

Tue Jun 2 22:06:44 EDT 2015

Not Wabash but similar.  In addition to the window arrangement and  sides 
that Jim noted, the trucks are wrong.  It is a Budd car (note the  roof) as 
the Wabash's were, so it's not a bad stand-in for those not inclined to  
count rivets.  Wabash didn't name theirs, though; their similar cars were  
200-202 and became 1610-12 on N&W.

(Details taken from Jim's "Color Guide" book; if you don't own a  copy get 
thee to eBay posthaste.)

Not an original Wabash car. Got to be ex-GN  or ex-NP. Window arrangement 
and slab sides are the giveaway.

Kind of looks like NS's Delaware.

Can anyone shed light on  the Wabash dome that was in the consist for the 
trip from Spencer to  Roanoke?
Is she an original Wabash car?
