What's the difference between a GP40-2 and GP39-2? What year did the Reading dieselize? How many tracks were in Rutherford Yard? This board focuses on a discussion of questions or issues concerning the "prototype" Reading Company and its predecessors. While the aim of this board is to serve as a resource for prototype information for modeling purposes, general discussion and sharing of knowledge is also encouraged.

Was the roof sheet metal like all the other classes, or was it also made out of strip wood? Or maybe panels of plywood? I rummaged through the Reading Caboose book and did not find any references as t the materials, nor could I find any pictures to go either way. Although the cupola roof has the different side slope than the stell caboose classes.
*reason I'm asking is because I'm about to post in the scratchbuild section   |
