Orion VII 4 Life 1,062 #2 Posted December 11, 2012 Nice pic! It looks like that car has no propulsion as I believe has been pointed out, so guess we'll have to wait and see what the new cars have. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only one of the trucks has those "axle caps" which are indicative of trailer trucks on the A division millennium stock. I think the C car is motored the same as a B car.

Dan05979 1,028 #7 Posted December 12, 2012 So this 7899 is sandwiched in between 2 cars with different #'s? 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grand Concourse 2,690 #8 Posted December 12, 2012 Yes, all the other cars are converted R142As. Any new car will just be inserted and be given new numbers. No R142As will be renumbered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Far Rock Depot 1,289 #17 Posted January 14, 2013 Ok guys. I think its time to stop playing grammar nazis and return to being railfans. If its relevant information and we eventually all understand the post, it may be time to take in the info and just move long. Its getting kinda old. And pretty immature, dontcha think? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woodside7878 12 #19 Posted March 1, 2013 a Youtube video I saw of R142A car# 7209 that was at the Kawasaki plant must been renumber as the current 7899 C car, this is a theory, give me your thoughts and opinions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know why you'd think this, but it has been established that 7899 is a brand new car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
