R670

Does anyone know where there is a listing of the AAR Car Type Codes (not to be confused with AAR Mechanical Codes)? I have done some searching but could not find a complete listing. The best I found was David Casdorph’s website.

I was looking at Tropicana’s car characteristics to see if they were mechanical reefers. Some are R670s (200 and 1200 series), which I suspect are 60’ I-L RPLs and others are R610s (2000 series), which I suspect are 60’ I-L RBLs. I looked up some cars I know are 50’ I-L RBLs, they are R410. The 50’ I-L RPLs are R460 and R470. The 60’ I-L RBLs are R610s, so it seems logical that an R670 is a 60’ I-L RPL.

Does this help?

Indeed it does, thanks. Although I have been looking through RR Picture Archieves and have found numerous errors on the information listed for freight cars, so it looks like one has to be careful about information from there.
