HO PRR Circle Keystone Era Freight Car Reweigh Decals (1933-1955)
As freight cars were used, they were constantly being reweighed to ensure that custoemrs were being charged the correct amount for transport of goods. This also ensured that cars would not be unsafely overloaded which could cause complications while enroute to a destination. AAR rules dictated cars should be reweighed on a regular schedule. This sheet was created to help replicate that for modelers of the PRR's Circle Keystone era.
This sheet includes data for 6 different scale locations from across the PRR System (P18: Camden, NJ; P129: Northumberland, PA; P243: Shire Oaks, PA; P270: Wheeling, WV; P283: Ebenezer, NY; P341: Conway, PA) and 12 different reweigh dates (8/33, 6/35, 12/38, 9/40, 2/41, 4/42, 12/43, 9/47, 8/49, 11/51, 5/53, 10/55). Repack data to match the provided data along with two sets of color patches for appropriate shades of Freight Car Color for 1930's-1940's and 1940's into mid-1950's.
