Excerpt from Freight Car Equipment: A Reference Book for Car Men on Freight Car Work, Describing and Illustrating in Detail the Different Kinds of Freight Cars Now Built and Various Devices Used in Their Construction, and Repairs; It Also Contains Instructions on the Westinghouse and New Yo After the issue of book entitled "Freight Repairs," several years ago, a number of requests were received from car men throughout the country, asking for a more complete book on the same line, covering freight car work. Instead of these requests diminishing they have of late become so numerous that the publisher has at last yielded to this strong influence in attempting to give car men in this issue a larger book on freight car repairs and construction. In offering this book to the railroad public, it is the purpose and aim of the publisher to furnish the Car Department with a ready means of reference on freight car work, and especially on repairs to foreign cars. Great care has been taken in compiling this data and the weights, labor charges, and other tables, are believed to be as nearly correct as is possible to obtain. In the illustrations only such devices are shown that are at present being used in freight car construction and repairs. Each subject is condensed as much as possible, and only a treatise given on such work as will be of value and assistance to Car Foremen, Inspectors and Repairers, in making repairs; inspecting; ordering material and in various ways facilitating the work of the Car Department.

An illustrated guide to the wide variety of freight car equipment of the railroads that have and continue to service North America, this book covers each type of freight car and what it was designed to haul, as well as the equipment necessary to keep them all ‘on track.’ Equipment designs are based on the type of commodity that would be shipped. For example, 24-foot box cars are designed to handle 75 to 85 tons of iron ore. High cubic capacity covered hopper cars are designed for handling grain traffic, while lower cubic capacity is designed for handling heavy commodities, such as cement. See the changes for each type through time, like the early Refrigerated Cars that required ice which have evolved into today’s much larger Mechanical Reefers. Great book for modelers.

For the first time, a book has been assembled to provide an illustrated overview of the freight equipment used by the Soo Line railroad throughout most of the 1900s and into the early 2000s. This ambitious project contains examples of almost all major freight equipment series acquired by either the Minneapolis, St. Paul & Sault Ste. Marie (Soo Line) or Wisconsin Central after its 1909 lease by the Soo. Featured are the freight equipment, intermodal trailers, and cabooses (some built well before 1909) still in use on the Soo Line and the W.C. at the time of the 1961 merger. Also included is the distinctive and colorful equipment purchased or built by the "new Soo," as well as cars later leased by the Soo Line. The entire 8 1/2" by 11" 152-page book is printed in color, and more than 500 black and white or color photographs are included. Many of these are builder's photos from American Car and Foundry, Pullman Car & Manufacturing Co., Pullman Standard, and the Soo Line Railroad. Photos were provided from collec¬tions of over 80 individuals, museums, and historical society archives. Caption material, section introduc¬tions and sidebars were provided by some of the best-known individuals in their areas of specialization. An introduction covers a brief history of the Soo Line, its relationship with the early Wisconsin Central, its 1961 merger creating the "new Soo," its 1980s acquisitions and spinoffs, and finally, its total absorption by the Canadian Pacific Railroad in 1990. Notes on numbering, painting and lettering are also included. Emphasized is the post-1961 merger creating the "New Soo" and its distinctive bold new image, enhanced by its Colormark program. The Soo Line's major shops at Shoreham, MN and Fond du Lac, WI are also discussed. Finally, the Soo Line Historical and Technical Society is highlighted, along with suggested additional reading in terms of books and extensive freight car-related articles from the SOO. The book is dedicated to Guy N. Kieckhefer, whose passion for photographing, researching and documenting Soo Line freight cars provided the basis, inspiration, and much of the content.
