WW&F Boxcar #312

One can see a portion of the patch job at the roof line to the right of the door which was done to raise the roof. This photo if from my visit during 2016.

In the July/Aug 2021 issue of the Narrow Gauge Gazette there is a nice article about modeling WW&F 312. This boxcar still exists and is on display at the Boothbay Rilway Village in Maine. This 28' car began as W&Q 34 built in 1895. The car has a low roof. When the WW&F rebuilt the car the roof was raised and renumbered 312. It is kind of cool how it is patched together...George Dutka
