Re: PC: PRR to PC caboose #s

[Mark Branibar <banshee2006@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Roger,

PC 23275 is ex PRR 478096, PC 23276 is ex PRR 478068, PC 23277 is ex PRR 478045, PC 23278 is ex PRR 478072 and PC 23279 is ex PRR 478179. 

Your numbers for 23280-23282 are correct.

PC 23264 was retired prior to Jan. 1974 so it wasn't sold with the rest. Your IC knowledge is much better than mine (which is none).

Do you know the exact re-numberings to the IC group?

Regards,
Mark Branibar
