Like letters and numerals of reference (lenote like parts in all the figures.
Referring to l? i i 5, [6 represents an end portion of ihe side 01 a body, a) the end (broken away 01 the car body adjoining the side portion 0:, end 0 she corresponding part or the ear underframe.
According to my invenizion, the end pen tion a o- Tihe of the car body (hereintermed the casting) is composed preferably, of cast steel in. single piece,

Gr the casting a n 1 wise fixed it the bortoin to i c as found n'ios desirable l The sicle of the ear oof'y as so built up, forms no part of my invention, but if desired the entire side of the car body may consist of a series of sections or castings a ends, in lieu of the ordinary built up construction, as seen in Fig. 7, which shows my invention applied to a passenger car, and in the case of a caboose or analogous car the entire side may be of cast steel in a single iece as shown in Fig. 8.
The metallic end Z) of may be of built upstructural rolled members, but preferably, of cast steel in a single piece as shownon the drawing, is preferably, formed according to my invention along each side edge or thereabout and adjacent thereto on its inner face with two parallel upright beads or projections 13 which overlap the outer and inner edges of end memher 1 of the side casting a so as to interlock the latter With the end I) and thereby prevent the sides of the car from spreading, and the telescoping of the car in case of collision, the end I) being furthermore riveted to the end members 1 of the casting a and at the bottom to the underframe 0 in any desirable manner.
In combination with the side casting a fixed together at their meeting- .tudinal edge by a flange the car body, which,
I may use a roof section 14: (Figs. 1 and 3) of the desired shape, and composed preferably, of cast steel integral throughout and extending preferably, the entire length of the casting a, the roof section 14 being preferably, flanged and fixed atits lower longi tudinal edge by rivets 15 to the top member 3 of the casting a, and at its upper longi- '16 and rivets 17 to the metallic sill 18. Or the entire roof framing including the two opposite sections 14 and the intermediate ventilator framing 19 (with the hoods, not shown) may be integral as shown in Fig. 6.
I make no claim to the use ot a metallic end per se for a railroad car, but
What I do claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:
A car side composed of one or more cast metal sections connected together, said sections having integral ribs traversing their area and serving to transmit the load by forming the principal load-carrying elements of the car.
