N-10 Class Data
49 cars 24000-24049 ex PC 24000-24049.
Bay window type, small centered bays, riveted, 50 cars built at Altoona in 1969. These cars were never equipped with roofwalks. PC 24015 was scrapped 7/10/71. Please see N-7B for additional information. Some of these cars, including 24032 and 24035, were assigned to Detroit Edison unit coal trains by the PC and painted metailic blue like the DE locomotives, I don't know if this scheme was retained by Conrail.


Outlines created from photographs of N-7B CR 21039 and others by T.W.Wolfgang.

Modeling the N-10
HO
Could be kitbashed based on Athearn or Walthers bay window caboose. The small bay that comes with the Walthers kit would be a better start.

Other scales?
Any tips would be appreciated!
