MER Clinic: The Southern Railway Smooth Side Passenger Car Rebuilding Program

Presented by Fenton Wells @ MER Raleigh 2011

This is a presentation on how the prototype took older cars and rebuilt them into modern cars, and the reasons for how and why they built the cars. Plus, a description of how the cars were done and the trials and tribulations the SR experienced while they were completing this task. Lots of prototype data and photos from the Southern Archives.

Category: Prototype; Scale: None
