Re: PC: Former G39 ore jennies still operating?

[Stephen Vargo <anthrax2525@xxxxxxxxx>]

 Lighten up just a speck. This all got started because of a genuine question/confusion with Pennsy's G39 design ore car. That's fine. Let the topic ride itself out to it's natural conclusion.

 Also, there's been an increase in postings, and some from new contacts. That's not a bad thing. Let it go and things will resume as usual.

Come on guys this a PC forum.

 

The cars that were seen were not PRR/PC/CR G39 ore jennies.

 

The cars that were seen were ex-SP ore cars.  These were used to haul iron ore to Kaiser Steel.

The SP sugar beet cars were wood sided.
