Got this request off-list, with a really intriguing photo. Those sure
look like Erie high-side gons, don't they?

Can anyone help Jack here?

Hi Paul,

The attached pic shows pulpwood operations at Dunkirk, NY in the late
1930s. I am trying to find more information - specs, pics, etc.
regarding those high sided gondolas.

The dock rail facilities belonged to the Erie RR. However, although the
logos on the gondolas are indecipherable, they may be PRR cars. Both
railroads had facilities in Dunkirk and served the destination of the
pulpwood - Johnsonburg, PA.

Any assistance or suggestions you may be able to provide re where I can
get more data on those gondola cars would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Jack Mayers
