Schuyler Larrabee Collection
From Schuyler:
Northern Pacific 39731 is a William. B. Barry photo without a date. However, the small lettering along the sill says:
REPACKED
BD 12-16-40
N.P.
While the entire car looks like its in great shape, it does also appear that the side, right of the door, was probably resheathed recently, as those joints are really tight. At the other end, the individual boards are much more visible.
More info about the prototype coming soon.
Thank you to Schuyler Larrabee for sharing these fantastic images with us.
