Does anyone have any information on the 1880's / 1890's D&RGW Fruit Car. It is a 34' long over the end sills, has 33" wheels and an hybrid std gauge truck. The truck has coil and leaf springs. Car numbers range from 635 - 644. This is not the Calif fruit car. Any info, drawing ref, pictures etc would be appreciated
