| Description: |
Nickel Plate Road HT 34333 on the BN at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in April 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. According to the October 1971 issue of the Official Railway Equipment Register (ORER), page 128 under N&W, this was one of 443 cars in the 34000-34499 number series, 14000 pounds capacity (70 ton car). It appears to have built by Bethlehem. Also of interest is Southern 99442 car in the background (I could have framed this shot better). It was built in May 1974 (stencilled 5-74), so it is not in the ORER I have. It is also stencilled: RETURN PROMPTLY WHEN EMPTY TO SOUTHERN OR C OF GA ANY JUNCTION POINT. Sounds like the didn't want this car wandering off. |
