Hello

Pls find links to scans of 2 ads
related to RI gas-electric "box-motors"

Both about so-called "1st series"
i.e. conversions from postal cars

An ARMCO ad dated 1928

http://www.quiot.com/general_pics/RiBoxMotor_AdRailwayAge_1928December08.png

++ this one shows initial configuration
probably with both engines at one end
and baggage door the other end
++ old style radiators

A GE ad dated 1930

http://www.quiot.com/general_pics/Ad_GE_RI_BaggageMotors.png

++ this one shows final 1st series configuration
with engines installed symetrically
and baggage door in middle
++ also radiators of newer style

Any comment ?

Who has comments (tech. remarks,
positive/negative evaluations) about
those "old style" radiators which look just
like  those installed on GE Gas Electrics ?

Which improvements using new style ?

Does it mean that there were
spceliazied manufacturers for such radiators
which sold their solutions
to several car/locomotive manufacturers
(GE, EMC, IR, ...)

?????

Sincerely yours
