    "" About this big.

    You are not from Mexico are you? trying to work out how many will fit in a box car?


    In Australia we just call them freight carriages for the eddification of the rest of the world.


    Up the Aussies.


     Oh!  the word is dimensions not demensions, that is what I have. Good actualy I meet new people every day.

    For a 60' high Boxcar:


    Length, inside 60’ 9"


    Width, inside between rub rails 9’ 2"


    Length, over couplers 68’ 4 1/2"


    Width, inside between side sheets 9’ 6"


    Height, inside 13’ 1 5/8"


    Width, extreme 10’ 8"


    Height, extreme 17’ 0"


    Door opening, width 16’ 0"


    Height, top of rail to top of threshold 3’ 7 7/16"


    Door opening, height 12’ 9"
