Fostoria, Ohio 11-28-2012 I believe these cars are used to hull steel coils and are 53 feet long. Not sure what the number series are, or when they were built. Any info is appreciated. Thanks, Ed Durnwald Fostoria, Ohio Date: 11/30/12 09:12 Re: NS 166919 - Steel Coil Flat. Author: Forever-Railfan-45 Coil Steel Car, AAR class: Specialty open top car having fixed sides.
