Double Deck Cattle Ca Author: Clarence I'm no expert but I think those double decker stock cars are for pigs or sheep or goats or something in that size range.

Date: 11/23/21 19:23 Re: 5 of Central Pacific Freight Cars inc. Double Deck Cattle Ca Author: LarryDoyle In both the US and in Canada there were single deck cars, double deck cars, and "convertable" cars which had a mid-height deck which could be folded up (or down) so the car could be used either way. All three types were very common.
