Lot #266 - Portland & Rochester Pebble Finish Cast Panel Car Lock

 
  
 ky30
Railroad Portland & Rochester  
Size approx. 2 1/2" by 3 3/4" 
Type unknown
Condition Excellent

A most unusual P&RRR "C"ar lock. The lock design and lettering are just like the hard to find "B&MRR" models that turn up every few years. It's from New England and is believed to be from the Portland & Rochester Railroad, which was absorbed by the Boston & Maine 1893. The lock has a wonderful pebble finish on both sides. The front shows 5 fat rivet heads. The dust cover spring works fine. The bit is very odd and takes an undersized barrel. Excellent condition.
