ORER Notes

Discussion, General Notes

Per Tim Gilbert
At the turn of the century, the B&M and Fitchburg's boxcars were 34' long. The Fitchburg decided to bypass the evolutionary development of 36 footers, and build 40 footers instead.
The technology envelope was pushed too far too soon. Not until the B&M received its steel underframe USRA cars in 1919 did any B&M boxcar have a cubic capacity of over 3000 feet. While a furniture car might carry a light enough load for the 40 foot wood underframe to carry,the #11900 series was retired in 1921 only 22 years after the cars were built.
