Discussion, General Notes

Car Book and/or Car Disposition Data

Car Books (1923-06 thru 1936-10, then 1944-05 thru 1960-03)

NOTE: Many (if not all) cars in this series were renumbered from other series (typically gondolas). If there is record of that renumbering, any subsequent info from the cars books is in the original number series.
Also - if no "car type" is listed, I am ASSUMING they were cinder cars - which may (or may not) be true.
Volume number refers original book number
Part number refers to PDF file part as posted on B&MRRHS site
Page numbers refer to pages in PDF file(s) (L/R = Left or Right side of that PDF page)
