Title: Need help on "era" information
Post by: Loco Bill Canelos on June 10, 2012, 09:24:41 AM

A few years ago I saw a listing of major changes in railroad equipment and the year it happened, it was in an old magazine, possibly MR or Trains. It listed things like changes in air brake equipment, when roofwalks were no longer required, when "COTS"abels were applied and many other major changes. I kept a copy and now can't find it.

Can anyone point me to that document, or any similar source??

Thanks Bill
