I wonder if anyone has anything that would indicate the car # for 40' box cars owned by the C & O circa 1910. Also, if you can tell if they are truss rod underframe and single door. Last: paint colors for box cars: Box Car Red or something redder? I'm most interested in the #, though. Any help would be appreicated.

Hello. Click on the following link:
C&O Historical Society Digital Gallery - Search (http://www.chessieshop.com/gallery/)
You can enter box car or whatever you are looking for and see if a picture comes up that interestes you. I did this briefly and found several pictures of early 20th century C&O box cars.
Good luck!
