BR&W Lackawanna "Boonton" Coaches

Does anyone have the DL&W numbers for the four "Boonton" coaches currently owned by the Black River & Western RR in Ringoes, NJ? If so, please share what you know. None of the published rosters have these details. Thanks!

Randolph Kean shows BR&W 301 as DL&W 610. That's the only Booton car that shows on his list; the BR&W probably obtained more in the final 1972 sell-off of those things (same time VRR, Mid-Continent, IRM got theirs).

Thanks Howard and Kevin for the info, especially on DL&W coach No. 610. I sent BR&W General Manager Kean Burenga an email and he has contacted a BR&W researcher. Hopefully I'll be able to obtain numbers of the others. Appreciate your responses!
