Built in
late 1955 by the CB&Q’s Havelock Shops, these 1,844 cubic
foot capacity fishbelly gondola with Bettendorf trucks were later
rolled into Burlington Northern’s fleet of cars post-merger. Burlington
Northern was formed through the mergers of Great Northern and
Northern Pacific in 1970, and then merged with ATSF in 1995 to
form BNSF. |
