[RITSlist] Question about Bulkheads

[Jim Eager]

>Was this a fantasy scheme or did the Rock actually have any bulkheads in blue?

The final RI listing in the January 1980 ORER shows no ROCK bulkhead 
flats of any kind. However, the date for the RI data is shown as 
10/79, so it is still possible that one or more RI bulkheads were 
repainted before shutdown.

But as Bob Massey wrote, if the model is an MDC car it is bogus 
regardless as the RI did not have any cars of this type.

BTW, the MDC model is based on a 60ft/56-8 IL Thrall prototype bought 
by BN/C&S, MILW, UP and a few other roads. Trailer Train's Thrall 
TTPX bulkheads were much longer 68ft/62-0 IL cars.
