The center sill constructionis of the box type, consisting of two15-in., 40-lb. channels, spaced 12J^ , and two J4x20-in. side sills are 3;^xSxJ^-in. spaces between the center sill cover-plate and the side angles are covered withli-in. steel plate, reinforced with L-shaped stifltencrs, riveted on top. Theback follower stop and front bumper cast-ings are integral as used on freight center plates are drop-forged steel. Oak blocks are placed on the end sillsand cross-bearers to support the steelbox forming the inside lining. Thespaces between these blocks are filledwith insulation, consisting of four layersof %-in.
