;Notes.<br>
:Alan's roster shows this group survives intact to NS ownership, probably with original numbers, but most of the 8 ton cars do not make it to NWP.<br>
:Alan includes a boxcar 5. Its number sequence doesn't work, and it is way too heavy for a boxcar.<br>
:Alan also includes 33 cars numbered 88 to 94, then unknown, and 18 cars used from SPC. SPC records show 50 cars sold to NS.

<h3>Flatcars</h3>
:All numbers odd only.<br>
:Numbers are an informed guess<br>
:Car counts are based primarily on news reports, and are suspect.<br>
