This 50’
standard box car with plug door is painted Armour yellow with
aluminum roof and ends. It was built in August 1963 and runs on
Barber Roller Bearing trucks. The UP “Automated Railway” map design
was approved in 1962 to project an image of modern safety and
efficiency resulting from the UP’s newly installed system of automated
operational controls. The “Automated” map was applied only to
smooth side boxcars and autocars to high light their cushion load
underframes. Even though the UP “We can Handle It” slogan replaced
the “Automated Railway” in 1970, many cars with the attractive
map design remained running on the system. With the formation
of the Union Pacific Corporation in 1969 the word“Railroad” was
dropped from the UP Shield in 1970. |
