my ESPEE MODELERS ARCHIVE

California's Railroad to the U.S. 1861 - 1996

Southern Pacific Freight Car Specification Sheet Index

Thanks to Rob Sarberenyi, Gary Cox, Guy Wilber, Lee Gautreaux and Tony Thompson for contributing copies of the Spec. Sheets.

The data pages are slowly being converted to full html, instead of being (hard to read) scanned images.

Some pages of some sheets are incomplete, as these are being 'engineered' from scans and photocopies of pre or post sheets...

For much more freight car data and photos, see: Lee Gautreaux's SP Freight Cars website
