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!
