ORER Notes

Discussion, General Notes

Renumber/rebuild/? from 10000 and/or 11000 series cars?
Ballast cars.
16 rib (17 panels)
Per John Joyce, he has photos of this series in 1979, so I'm not sure when they first appeared...

STB Recordation Data

The STB (and ICC earlier) has records about car leases. For this car series, the following are available (copied from The STB web site)

26444 05-Jul-2006 - Security Agreement (?)
Looks like they got really "creative" on the builders of many of these cars
Omitting Locomotives and MEC cars... and BM cars not of this cars series

30 Pullman 70 ton hoppers BM 2900-2929

26444A 9-Apr-2009 - termination of security interest

27911 9-Apr-2009 - Security Agreement
Exact same list of cars as in 26444

27911C 21-Nov-2014 - [partial] Release of security interest
JUST box cars BM 3200-3399 [and some MEC cars] [omitting car list because cars not in this car series]
