Hello,
American Models is going to produce a set of S scale, Reading Company heavyweights. They need some help with car numbers. I have gleaned what I could from John Hall’s list of passenger equipment, however I am still missing a couple of classes. Here is what I have so far:

Baggage- BAp – 2 cars - numbers 1696 – 1697

Combines – CVg – 10 cars - # 520 - 529 and 15 cars - # 535 – 549

Dining cars – DCe – 4 cars - # 1186-1189

Observation – PVc --

Coaches – PBh- 75 cars - # 1400-1474; 10 cars - # 1485-1494; 20 cars - # 1505-1524

RPO/Mail cars --

I’m under the impression the Reading didn’t have any clerestory RPOs, but perhaps car numbers from the time period would do.
Any help would be welcome,

Check the passenger car tables under "articles" on this sure

They were all arch roof numbered in the 1700's

Here is my final list of Reading Company, clerestory roofed, classes and car numbers:


Baggage- BAp – 2 cars - # 1696 – 1697 - 6 wheeled trucks

Combines – CVg – 10 cars - # 520 - 529
- 15 cars - # 535 – 549 – 4 wheeled trucks

Dining cars – DCe – 4 cars - # 1186-1189 – 6 wheeled trucks

Coaches – PBh- 75 cars - # 1400-1474;
10 cars - # 1485-1494;
20 cars - # 1505-1524 – 4 wheeled trucks

Observation – PVc – 1 car # 10 – 6 wheeled trucks
-- PVd – 1 car # 15 – 6 wheeled trucks

RPO/Mail cars – MBl (should be a lower case L, but that is the same as an upper case I) – 2 cars # 1748-1749, with 6 wheeled trucks.
