Supposedly  the DL&W sold this car to the Boston & Maine sometime in the  
1930's.  The car has DL&W cast into its trucks.  Can anyone give  more detail 
about it in Lackawanna days and confirm the B&M bought  it?


==================
 
 
Interesting -- didn't know this car existed.  B&M bought a lot of  equipment 
from DL&W, including four-pocket coal hoppers, four freight  4-6-2s and a 
number of passenger cars, as previously mentioned. These were the  pre-Boonton 
Line suburban coaches and combines, the 1911-era batches that had  open 
vestibules but no collision posts.  A coach and combine from this  B&M batch were at 
Edaville, sold off with the rest of that collection in the  later 1990s.
 
Great  find.                       ....Mike Del Vecchio
