The only photo I have of a BPf is attached and it is of the opposite side which has some differences. First there is a lavatory with a smaller window and a dedicated roof vent. Second, the underbody tanks (probably water) are rounded in the 500 photo and lastly, in the 500 photo the second window appears blocked out. Do you know of any other photos or general arrangement diagrams of these cars?<div>Jim C.</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Oct 19, 2025 at 7:50 AM NW Mailing List via NW-Mailing-List <<a href="mailto:nw-mailing-list@nwhs.org" target="_blank">nw-mailing-list@nwhs.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><div></div>
<div dir="ltr">I think I have found the ebay photo Jim did not give us a link to. It shows locomotive #500 taking a train out of Norfolk Union Station. The first car is a combine, class BPf, which is the same design as the PJ coach. The roof is not "turtle-back," but lower, like a streamlined roof (but with rounded ends).</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Jim Nichols</div><div><br></div>
