These cars are; as faras internal contour is concerned, like theletter W, the two lower angles beingthe discharging points. The cars are of lbs. capacity,while the tare weight goes a little above39,000 lbs., making a ratio of payingload to dead weight ;n the neighborhoodof I to The body and the floor of these cars isformed of % in. plates riveted to 3V2X3Vax/« in. angles extending around thetop and bottom and the floor of thecar. The side plate of the body formsthe side sill except at the end of the car,where it is reinforced with a light 8 extending from the bolster bodyto the end. Between the body bolstersthe side plate extends below the floor ofthe car and is reinforced by angle iron. 6j4x
