I'm posting an updated photo of stock car 5672 to show how we are progressing on this car. Just a reminder that the car is being rebuilt as it was built in circa 1904 and will be displayed 1912 after the Federal Safety Appliance Act was initiated. All post 1926 improvements on the car have been eliminated to include the trucks and air brake system which is now back to the old style split system. The next step will be the milling of the lumber for the T&G boards to be applied to both ends of the car. We are also currently working out the side doors detail.
In regards to the side doors we are missing one three bolt door hanger and also missing the appropriate brake wheel for the car. Looking for help to locate and acquire these two items. When the car is finished in August we plan to display it next to our other ACF built car F&CC box car 507. Thanks for any help anyone can provide us. John Christensen 530-265-3668 NCNGRR Museum
