Numbers for Pennsy P709gR coach

[OldEastRR]

I've made a few upgraded P70s out of AHM models and found the names/numbers on every one except the P70gR. I've looked online at several sources but can't find the numbers for these gRs.

The following information is gathered from Passenger Equipment of the Pennsylvania Railroad, Volume 1: Coaches by Liljestrand and Sweetland:

Page 3, Paragraph 4:  The Altoona Car Shops rebuilt forty cars in 1937 to arch-roof, one vestibule sixty-eight rotating reclining seat class P70g coaches, renumbering them to #4360-4399.

The singular photo example on page 22 depicts P70gR coach with number 4382.

Hope this helps, and happy PRR n scale modeling!

That info agrees with the info on Jerry Britton's site:

"P70gR -- Forty cars were rebuilt in 1937 to arch roof, one vestibule P70gR coaches with 68 rotating reclining seats (Scheme 4) and renumbered to #4360-4399."
