I'm not near my reference materials, but I'm pretty sure the B&O had some wooden bay-windows that were rebuilt from old box cars and stock cars during WWII.  The B&O caboose book would provide relevant details.

Here is a picture and information on one of the B&Os cattle car cabooses           http://www.borhs.org/modelermag/BO_Modeler_6_2010_NovDec.pdf    Go down four or five pages and it will tell how it was built and on down is a picture of the car before it was rebuilt in the 70s.  so you can choose it you want to build as new or as rebuilt.  Or maybe one of each.

RAM and EBnut; Thank you both for the feedback and the good source.  This is a start, and will be done sometime later in the year.
