Appreciate the info Jared. I didn't even think to check Dave's site.
Based on the list for frameless cars, 11036 and 11058 are not "Gramps" cars. Looks like the two I'll be making.
Do any books show the typical 1956 numbering scheme for UTLX cars without Gramps lettering?
I have quite a few books on the D&RGW and rolling stock. But they are at my place in Colorado while I'm in California now (working) until the summer.
Bachmann makes the tank seen below. Is it accurate for the 1956 lettering? Looks just like 11058 in Golden, but not sure if this scheme is the 1956 style.
