The Canadian Pacific had 2 of these short vans that were used on mining runs in Nelson BC. Total length was under 25'. Were there any shorter 8 wheel cabooses on standard gauge track??????
NP had some 24 footers. Now if you have it as just standard gauge are you opening the door for all standard guage railroads? Becuase Weyerhaueser had some shorties they built for their woods railroads.
