Assembly Notes

Painting The wood parts of the floorboards should be painted with a semi-gloss black paint.
The metal trim plates should be painted with a gloss black paint.

Floor Board Brackets: The main floorboard consists of an upper and lower piece. These two pieces were held together by three metal brackets (not included - Lang's P/N ?????) installed on the bottom side. Each bracket was attached with four #10 x 5/8 in wood screws. See the accompanying diagram for the locations of these brackets.

Pedal Plates: There are two pedal plates which surround the pedal openings on the #1 and #2 floorboards. These are available as Lang's P/N 3625AS (1924 - 1925) or 3625BS (1926 - 1927). There are two pedal plates which surround the pedal openings on the #1 and #2 floorboards. Prior to January of 1924, the documentation specifies these to be installed using #15 x 5/8 in wire nails. Beginning on January 10, 1924, the pedal plates were riveted to the floorboards using four tubular rivets in each plate. When the draft deflector was added it was attached using the same rivets as the pedal plates. In practice it appears that a lot of the time (most of the time) the nails and rivets were not used. The pedal plates were simply slid over the slots and the tabs bent over to hold them in place. When the draft deflector was installed, the rivets were then used with the head of the rivet on the pedal plate and the peened side on the draft deflector.

Handbrake Plates: A third plate is installed around the handbrake opening. It is installed using four #15 x 5/8 in wire nails. This plate is almost the same as is used on the 1915 - 1925 open car floorboards (Lang's P/N 3633). The difference is that on the 1915 - 1925 open car floorboards the handbrake opening is contined withing the #3 floorboard which is a single flat board. On the 24-25 Enclosed cars, the handbrake opening extends across the joint of the upper and lower #3 floorboards. Since the #3 floorboard is angled, the plate also must have an angle in it. Currently the correct plate is not available, however the 1915 - 1925 open car plate can be modified to create the correct plate. The modifictaion is quite simple. Locate the location of the bend on the plate. On the back side of the plate make two small cuts in the tab, one on each side of the opening. Bend the front part of the plate upwards 30 degrees to match the angle of the #3 upper floorboard.
