Re: [PHOTOS] PART TWO: The Hudson & Manhattan Railroad

However the MP-51's always had to be on the ends of the train.

Are they MP-51's or MP-52's ? The Wikipedia PATH article states they are MP-52's

Another thing about the MP-38's. H&M had a Class D car type built in 1911 by Pressed steel Car Co and retired in 1958 when the Class K's came in. They were 36 cars numbered #701 - #736 but were painted red. I've never seen any photos of them. Did they look like the MP-38's ? They were made to run with the MP-38's much like the MP-51's and Class K car arrangement.

All the H&M cars were painted black, hence the nickname "black cars". That makes the MP-38's and class D cars the red cars.
