Jack snapped this picture of John and Bob posing with the two new cars. after a morning of plowing the SR&CL main line and some spur tracks.  The 33' car was placed on its trucks on the shop lead, and the 28' car was placed onto its trucks on the mainline, with No. 25 and flatcar 437.  Just after this picture was taken, the 33' car was spotted in the shop, and the 28' car was spotted in the new car barn.  Before these cars can be used in revenue service, the brake rigging must be installed and adjusted, cut levers must be fabricated and installed, stake pockets must be cast and installed, and reporting marks must be applied.
