This
50 rib side box car with plug door and no roofwalk is painted
maroon with white herald and lettering. It was built in
March 1968 and runs on Roller Bearing trucks. Constructed by the
SOO LINE, they were numbered into series #17100-
17498 using even numbers only. They received an XL classification
which identifies them as loader equipped with steel
perforated sidewalls or interior siderails. These offered securement
for certain types of lading and allowed permanent
attachment of moveable bulkheads.
