This 30’ box car with single door
is painted box car red with red, white and blue logo and white lettering.
It was built by Barney & Smith Car Company and ran during the
early 1900s, although the built date is unknown. It runs on brown
Barber Coleman Archbar trucks. The monetary panic of 1893 and a
devastating flood in 1894 caused the Union Pacific to decide not
to rebuild its Greeley, Salt Lake & Pacific Railroad (GSL&P),
which connected Boulder with the precious metal mines in the mountains
west of the city. Eastern capitalists formed a new company, the
Colorado & Northwestern Railway, which would replace the GSL&P,
and then extend the tracks to Ward and Endora.
