Was wondering what type of Boxcar the Virginian Had at the time of Merger
with N&W . Any round  roofs ? I rode the Virginian at a young age but don't
remember what type. Ken Tanner (kid on Hill Run) Raleigh ,NC

N&W had three classes of round-roof boxcars.  The class B-1 cars were
40-foot single door cars rebuilt into regular-roof cars with 8-foot doors
and I don?t recall the new class.

The class B-2 and B-3 cars were double-door cars 40-foot and 50-foot
respectively.  They were all gone when I went to work at Shaffers Crossing
Car Department in 1959.

They were rebuilt with conventional roofs, but I don't remember the dares
off hand.
