I wasn't referring to the number of stakes, Pat, but the type of stake pocket,

The 1500-1899 series had side stakes with a metal plate on the outside, with single U-bolt. This type of stake is offered by Grandt Line in HO, S and O scales.

I was asking about the stake pockets on the 1250-1499 cars, which had a cast stake pocket with 2 U-bolts. These are unavailable in S scale. Were the stake pockets on the 1000-1249 series gons also the same, with cast, 2 U-bolt stake pockets?
