Greg that car is 42'-5" at the body plus platforms makes it 48'-4".

We also have body of D&RGW 0250, ex western union 298, ex DB&W 20, ex C&NW 6, ex D&RG tourist sleeper 465. Danneman reports this car at 42'-6", if it is the same as the 466 then it is 48'-2" including platforms.

Short of getting out the tape measure tomorrow I would say these cars are the same length more or less.
