@Arne=  WOW what can I say!  You folks have some really neat livestock cars for sure.  Arne the "horse" car and the "pig" car with their special accommodations are really interesting, I have not seen anything like that before. P.S. I love the pigs, did you actually find those with the car or are they a later find?   I just purchased an IVES cattle car (actually made by Lionel and lithographed with IVES name)  It was only available for one year (1932 I believe) than Lionel transitioned all the lithographed cars to the Lionel name but for some reason did NOT bring the cattle car across.   It should arrive in about a week and I will picture it when it arrives.

Here is my current 2 deck livestock car, its a Lionel "Circus" car from 1956-1957.  No where near the antique age of the cars Arne showed but I thought you might like to see it anyway, in case you haven't before.

Well till I get my Ives Cattle car I will see you then.

Best Wishes and great posts.
