Need AMS flat car Deck/frame height

[Deleted_User_2918]

Anyone have an AMS flat care they could measure for me?

I am looking for the height from the top of the rail to the bottom of the deck (bottom of the “wood” under frame). Looking at a scratch-build and would like to know if it’s feasable before buying one.

Thanks in advance!

Idler flat is 1 1/2" from rail head to bottom of side frame beam (without a load, which pushes the truck springs down a little.)
Regular flat is 1 1/4" …
