Check out the Durham County Library Photo Archives of D&S steam engines - New 12-8-2006

S. A. McCall's hosam.com Roster - In Memorian

George Elwood's rr-fallenflags.org Roster - Lots of photos

I have only seen photos for four D&S cabooses, X-83, X-84, X-85, and X-86.
X-83 and X-84 had a windmill on top of them to generate electricity.
X-85 was an ex-SAL caboose.
X-86 currently sits at Durham's Museum of Life and Science.
2 flatcars, #101 and a second unnumbered flatcar used with an unnumbered derrick. You can see both flatcars on the left in a photo called "DSDUNNSHOP1973.JPG" on Warren Calloway's photo CD of the D&S.

In 1970, the D&S obtained 50 77 Ton triple hoppers lettered Durham & Southern (#6000-6049) for carrying sand out of Erwin, NC. After the merger, the hoppers were returned to the lenders.
The NMRA MER Carolina Piedmont Division 13 recently had some HO scale D&S Hoppers made in Oct. 2005. They are now all sold out. There were 6 different numbers. http://www.cpd13.org/clubcar.html

Compare that to the HO scale brass Precision Scale model of the N&W 1157 - I think they are very close!
