Stuhr Museum NG Equipment - Part I, stock cars
| August 11, 2020 10:21PM |
Noticed some discussion in the "First Taste of NG" thread about the equipment at the Stuhr Museum in Grand Island, Nebraska. Recently had the opportunity to visit the Stuhr and figured I would share the photos of the narrow gauge cars (neat place and well worth a visit)
Starting with the stock cars;
The good side of the black stock car
And the not so good side. Most sources say that this car is D&RGW 5598...
The car however makes a compelling case for actually being 5520. Still trying to rectify this.
D&RGW 5669
Next up the High Side Gondolas
