Description: |
CB&Q SM-19A 52679 at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in August 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This car was one of 200 (#'2 52500-52699) built at Havelock, Nebraska in 1944-45. The SM-19A's were near duplicates of the SM-19's built in 1937-38 (#'s 52000-52149), with the exception of the Stanray rectangular panel metal roof replacing the sheet-metal plated-over wood roof on the SM-19's which proved troublesome. Eventually some of the original SM-19's had their wood roofs replaced with Stanray diagonal-panel roofs. |
