30-foot flat cars Platform 8-wheel 1008-1352 34' 8'6" ... 345 34ft: 1

30ft: 4

Scratchbuilt, wood. The 1888 ORER lists these as 34' cars. The 1892 ORER lists cars 1191-1350 as 30' and 32' cars. I assumed that this series in 1888 was actually a mix of lengths. I followed a car diagram on the EARLYRAIL listserve for the 34' car number 1058 and built generic cars for the 30' length.
