This
89 tri-level closed autorack is green with white letteirng
and runs on Barber Roller Bearing trucks. Built in 1977 in a
series of 200 cars for Southern Railway, these 89 cars
had Portec racks installed and were assigned to the GM plant
in Roseland, Georgia. The 89 enclosed autorack design
became the universal standard used by most railroads. With end
loading doors and enclosed sides, this design prevents vandalism
and pilferage and helps to protect vehicles from the elements.
