Built by Greenville Steel Car Co.
in September 1963, this 60’ double plug door boxcar has riveted
sides with a short, 41’-3” wheelbase. Developed in response to the
rapidly changing needs of the automotive industry in the 1960s,
the Ford Motor Company urged manufacturers to develop a railroad
car fleet to accomodate these
changes. For the first time, competing railroads and car builders
cooperated to expedite development to meet the demand. The 60’ double
plug door boxcar was designed for transporting high-density components. |
