Researching the wood needed to re-deck a 40ā flat car at TVRM, I located this drawing (Southern SF-4174) in the SRHA digital files. As it shows MCB dimensions, the drawing would apply to many railroads. Note how many types of Southern cars are shown.
Note the āVā groove in the 6ā siding stock, purely ornamental?
