This 40’ Hy-Cube box car
with single door is painted Chinese Red with white logo and lettering. It was
built in November 1967 by Pullman Standard in Bessemer, AL, and runs on Barber®
Roller Bearing trucks. Mini Hy-Cubes were specifically designed for use in large
appliance service, assigned to specific appliance corporations such as Whirlpool,
Admiral and Philco. This particular car was fitted with twin Equipco load dividers.
The mini Hy-Cube phase was short-lived, quickly overshadowed by longer and bigger
cars. |
