I found this photo of an A-C railcar in a 1956 copy of Trains Magazine recently. I wondered if anyone else had ever seen this? I imagine this car has long gone to the scrap yard. Cool pic tho!

That's a neat find. I'd bet you're right and they were scrapped long ago, sadly.

Yes, purpose-built for that function, once the condensers were all shipped, there was no need for the chassis, they would have pulled the bogeys and couplers, and turned the frames into reusable raw materials. |

Ten Amendments, Ten Commandments, and one Golden Rule solve most every problem. Citrus hand-cleaner with Pumice does the rest.
