Those are some neat stock cars on the front of that train!  Surprised no one has made them in HO yet.

I've been trying to find photos of those long stockcars, but no luck so far.  Given the date on the photo, I'm guessing that those cars didn't last too long, as railroads were phasing out the transport of livestock.

I was going to buy a couple of these livestock cars....

   

...but the data printed on them (at that time) indicated that they were too new for my late '30s-era layout.  As you can see in the photo above, though, they're now perfectly suited for my layout's timeframe.  Hopefully, I'll drop-in at Montoursville sometime this summer, to pick up a couple of them.
