Does anyone have a source of the metal supported rubber weather stripping on Pullman cars?

Could you be more specific? I just went through the struggle of re-doing the schlegel strip on some 1952 Adlake caboose windows; ended up getting a "mohair" tape from England and my volnteers glueing/screwing it into the original window channels.Steve Zuiderveen

Lightweight or heavyweight cars? A few years ago, the Roanoke Chapter NRHS had a die made to convert Pullman lightweight double glazed windows to single pane safety glass. A local rubber distributor here in Roanoke has the capability of producing batchs. Drop me a PM for the contact info

The weatherstripping is on Pullman heavyweights. The molding goes around the edge of the doors and other doors like baggage doors. The molding is steal with a rubber strip appears go be cover with light canvas.
