Need pictures of 36' oldtime boxcars

[Waldbahner]

Hello,

I'll try to build some wooden oldtime boxcars with 36' length in n-scale for my logging railroad.

So, I'm searching for some pictures of underside, side and front of the boxcar.

Can any one help ?

Thank's, Gerd

If you go to http://www.index.mrmag.com/tm.exe and do a search for 36' Boxcar, there might be some articles with drawings.

Ive got a few oldtime cars from roundhouse. I'll have to dig them out to take a few pics for you. Patience grasshopper and I'll brave the dusty trail under the benchwork. i'll see if I can have them for you by tomorrow morning.

I've got afew them packed away right now as well. course this is due to being on the road alot and no time for the layout.

Try finding an HO scale Roundhouse oldtime car and use it as the template for your construction.

Don't be afraid to contact him if you dont see it he has helped me tremendously. Pat
