Bettendorf Steel Underframe

[Bill Uffelman]

DSP&P was long gone as an entity by the time Bettendorf frames were made. C&S was an early acquirer of "modern" steel framed cars.

Figuring that the C&C had some of the boxcars I wonder why the DSP&P didn't use them too.

Dave,
was the C&C around in 1874, that's the build date of the oldest surviving 4-Wheel Carriage here?

Chris: Nope, and not saying it was there before NZR but that it was there before the C&S testing metal frames. Steel, no, but metal, yes.
