Mark:  They are nice cars, aren't they?  I also have one of the Wabash, even though it is a heavily weathered survivor by 1974.

Yes, likewise for circa 1975.

Do that N&W car with the load and I'd definitely want it.  The load itself would be a perfect delivery to the irrigation and farm equipment dealer on my layout.

I got one from the 1st run in Wabash - very nice! :D

Do one like this and I'll buy multiples:

Did N&W use these for Piggyback service at one time? I thought I saw a picture of that.

I have no references to any of the former WAB classes ever being equipped with hitches.

Oops, my bad, I found the picture again and it's a 60' N&W flat equipped for farm machinery (chain tie downs along the sides and presumably the center).  The best I can tell on the number is 32700.
