Shelter Sheds as Flat Car Loads

[NW Mailing List]

Thanks for sharing this Joe. I previously thought all structures were built on-site.

It makes sense though, especially for a smaller structure. Building them in a controlled environment would make the process quicker, quality higher, and with lower costs.

Archives drawing HS-A09336 shows the proper means of loading a prefabricated shelter shed on a flat car. Basically, leave the base offset to one side so the roof peak is centered.

Since that drawing was part of a series of clearance drawings, there is no mention of how it would be secured.

Some of these sheds were moved between multiple locations over the years.

Anyone ever seen a photo or video of one of these loaded on a flat car?
