Reading
- The Reading had 1,000 cars in the
81000-81999 series. A photo appeared in the 1949
Cyc. According to the RDG class diagrams,
these were built in 1948 by Bethlehem and rode on
secondhand Birdsboro trucks. (Off hand, I haven't a
clue as to what type
of trucks these were.) The cars had 10 panel
sides, with uneven spacing.
