Dave:
What paint scheme did the CP cars have? Multimark or the previous
script/block lettering?

Dave from Pembroke I use to ride both cn and cp locals down to a plant
called the Canadian Splint at one time Now I do recall seeing these 40 foot
woodchip cars all the time .As i rember they dont have any braceing across
the tops of the cars .I can remember them as a complete open top .When I was
a kid I got on one of these loaded cars and walked from one end to the other
now I do have part of that woodchip artical from the magazine The other I
will have to locate .so both cn and cp 40 foot woodchip cars did not have a
top braceing folks..Dave from Pembroke.
