This 40' outside-braced box car with 1-1/2 doors was built in February 1928. The simple paint scheme includes a box car red body with white lettering. Fifty of these NP auto-haulers were painted in this simple scheme because NP’s Orientally-styled Monad herald did not fit between the outside bracing. The 80,000 lb capacity box rolls on Bettendorf trucks. The NP finds its origins in a railroad charter signed by Abraham Lincoln on July 2, 1864. The road was to connect the Great Lakes and the Puget Sound. The St. Paul, Minnesota based railroad became part of Burlington Northern in March 1970.
