Two of the 6500 series flats were converted to bulkhead flats. I read somewhere the reason for this was to haul sheetrock to Farmington,N.M. during the boom. Does anyone have a photo of one loaded? None of my small collection of books shows one loaded. Also, what did they cover the loads with? Was it a tarp like the auto flats? Thanks, JP
