This
50 standard box car with 10 single door and no roofwalk
with short ladders is red with black ends and white lettering
and runs on Roller Bearing trucks. Built in 1959 by ATSF at
the Topeka shops, in a series of 256 cars, this boxcar was used
for general service. It was equipped with SL loaders and ATSF
Shock Control floating underframe to minimize damage from in-train
forces. They were repainted in the mid-1970s and by 1990 the
entire series had been retired from revenue service.
