| This 50’
steel side, 14 panel, fixed end gondola wears the dark blue scheme
with Golden West Service name and stacked block logo with white
lettering and runs on black Barber® roller bearing trucks.
These bright-blue cars were former SP, Cotton Belt and Rio Grande
freight cars that were re-built and sold to various shortlines
and then leased back by the railroad. All cars were painted in
the same dark blue scheme with the Golden West Service name and
stacked block logo on the side of the car. There were several
shortline railroads for which the cars were lettered over the
years as a class one. These lines included the Galveston Railroad
(GVSR), Ventura County Railroad (VCY) and Cole Rail (CRLE). |
