This 60’ box car with double plug
doors is painted brown with white ‘steam-era’ lettering. It was
built as part of series 50500-50559 in November 1963 and runs on
Barber Roller Bearing trucks. In the early 1960s Ford Motor Company
prodded the railcar manufacturers to design a railroad car fleet
to meet changing conditions in
the automotive industry. One of these was the 60’ double plug door
box car designed for transporting high-density components such as
castings and transmission assemblies. This 60’ box car marked a
revolution in rail-car development |
