If you look closely at the car on the side you can see the lettering matches the car in my photo.  These were specialized cars typically used for auto parts that needed the raised roof.

Jim’s photo certainly matches the photo, but all the same the B&O car was referred to as ‘wagon-top’. They had a design reason for the curve; why did Pennsy do it? That’s a rhetorical question; keep the discussion on N&W.

I think it may be a Pennsylvania X31f box car.  The end roof panel appears to be lower than the rest.

I'd say the round-top boxcar is B&O.

You mean the round-top box car? No A tank in photo.

Accident happened on Monday November 1, 1943 according to the Richmond Times-Dispatch. I sent Ken a copy of the newspaper article if he wants to relay more details.

Hi All
 
This is the second time I’ve seen this wreck photo, with a request for details, but have nothing on file about it.
 
It is Y6 No. 2160 at Koehler, Va, depot, also might be considered Fieldale, but that is all we know.
 
Anybody got more information?
 
Best
Ken Miller
