Guys,
Has been a lot of years since i last signed in, but want to clear up some confusion on the purported C&S 8308, RGS 8714. these are not the same cars. if you compare the buffer blocks between know photos of 8714, one a little further back in the thread, and those of the purported C&S 8308, currently underneath C&S 8310 at the CRRM you will see they are quite different. i have attached a couple of pictures i found out on the web several years ago. of the car i question at magic mountain and it doesn't have visible roof hatches as well. what car is it really, i do not know. anyone have pictures of the car in south Alamosa?
need to resize a couple of pictures, more to follow
