[Accrs-ho] Wheels of Time HO Southern Pacific Lumber Cars

[ACCRS HO Scale]

If anyone has any guesses on what dimension the lumber might be on the left car in the image?  I’m guessing it’s 6x6 or 8x8’s – not as tall as the side sill of the car. (will have to measure that) What size of timbers do the road construction companies use for shoring when making concrete roadway bridges?

I believe the cars in this photo match up with the Wheels of Time HO scale cars.  They came out with a plastic lumber load in yellow plastic, but passed on that and just got the cars.  There are bulk head cars and plain flat.

Here’s an image with loads.

Has anyone gotten these models and worked on lumber loads?
