Conrail Cyclopedia Trailvan: References Magazine Articles: "Intermodal Equipment Numbering: The Prototype Way," Dennie Hedlund. Model Railroading. Nov 95, 19-23. An overview of how railroads number their equipment. Spends time on Conrail, though not a detailed CR article. CRZ 235324 "Piggyback Trailers in the Eighties," David Casdorph. Railroad Model Craftsman. March 88, 87-93. A great article covering trailers, their uses, and everything else you need to no. No Conrail-specific information, but valuable for anyone modeling these trailers. "Conrail 40' Van Stretched," Montford L. Switzer. Mainline Modeler. Aug 86, 30-33. Modeling one of CR's 40' vans that had a 5' extension added. Uses the Milepost 501 model; not sure if this is available any more or what to substitute. Prototype and detail photos. Nice model!
