Explanation of indicating marks and standard notes appear in the individual registrations or at the foot of each page. Measurements of lengths are given, in the , majority of instances, in feet and inches, fractions of inches omitted from inside measurements and increased to the next even inch in outside measurements. In those few registrations where this is not the case, following is an explan~tion of figures appearing under heading of "Length of Car", sub-colum~ headed "Over Buffer":

-60 indicates length-under 60 ft 60-70 indicates length - 60 ft and under 70 ft -70 indicates length-under 70 ft 70+ indicates length-70 ft and over.

Figures appea,ring under heading of "Length of Comp't", sub-columns headed "Bag. or Exp." and "Mail" are in even feet, the lower foot measurement being used where the excess is 6 inches or less and the higher foot length where the excess is more'than 6 inches. Example-If actual measurement of eompartment is 28 ft 6 in., the length appears as 28 ft; if actual measurement is 28 ft 7 in., the length appears as 29 ft.

Head End Cars - References to "Head End" cars which appear in "Note X" in the individual registrations, signify cars of the so called head end type, A. A. R.
