It has  always been my impression that siding measurement in "cars" was based 
on a  coupled 40' car,
much the norm in earlier days.

In 1966 Employee Timetables the fact was mentioned that "Siding Capacities  
were based on 40 foot cars."
 
In 1971 Employee Timetables the note shows "Based on 60 foot to the car,  
allowing for engine and caboose."
