What a great bit of FRA mandated laws affecting railroads and the conforming fed info an time era that lets us know when these laws took affect. Helpful to model railroaders who want to create a era. Right on Doug. Thx.

Why did the FRA demand the roof walks be removed?

Yea , I like non compliance. I like all the more detail on that groovy 40 footer. Wonder what year it was built . It looks as if it has a seal on the door so its making a living for the railroad

They had to be removed as a safety item. No employees on the room of a moving car. The same went for cabooses.

Just because the walkways were there did not mean they had to be used. Interesting bit of history here. Agree they looked much better with the walk ways. Groovy, man!
