| Post subject: | Tracking old Freight Cars ORER |
I am looking to find old equipment registers to help me straighten out freight car rosters for a research project. The project is the Arcade & Attica Railroad. Luckily they were small enough that they usually only had a small corner of a page. I'd be interested in obtaining photo copies of just the page they are listed on. Are there any available online? I am in need of various years from 1900 up to 1975. I'd be interested to hear any suggestions or from some that might have copies of the ORERs. Thank you very much, Patrick Connors Secretary- A&A RR CMO - BSOR |

Check with your local university libraries... Here in Northern California the Stanford Library has a very good run of ORER's going back as far as the 1880's. Alternately check with various railroad museums to see if they maintain a library... In California the California State Railroad Museum does, and has a good collection. There is an very good library associated with the NRHS located at the Baltimore Streetcar Museum for those on the far coast... |
