Edaville rolling stock
Richard Cavalloro:
Is there a list somewhere of how many pieces of rolling stock were brought to Edaville?

For what it's worth, Linwood Moody's 1947 booklet titled "Edaville Railroad" (self-published by Ellis Atwood) gives the Edaville roster at that time as including:
Monson engines 3 and 4;
B&SR engines 7 and 8;
B&SR coaches 15, 17, and 18;
W&Q/WW&F coach 3;
B&SR baggage car 31;
SR&RL parlor car 'Rangeley';
15 boxcars from the B&SR;
14 flatcars from the B&SR;
2 tank cars from the B&SR;
4 excursion cars (presumably converted from B&SR boxes and/or flats?);
B&SR caboose 101;
SR&RL caboose 557;
B&SR snowplow;
B&SR flanger;
2 SR&RL Model T railcars;
SR&RL Reo railbus;
plus 2 Model T "bog engines", a 5-ton Pymouth gas-mechanical engine, and 32 4-wheel dump cars already on the property.
(The other SR&RL passenger cars and cabooses appear to have arrived separately sometime after 1947.)
Richard Cavalloro:
Thanks That's exactly what I was looking for. Too bad all the box and flat cars don't exist any more
Bill Sample:
I believe additional boxcars were converted to excursion cars after this roster was compiled.
Joe Fox:
Most of the flat cars became open air flat cars with no roof, amd platforms on each end.
