It's a rebuild double sheathed car actually; the NKP only ever owned 1,200 single sheathed cars (1,000 Fowlers and 200 war emergency cars). Auto boxcars with end doors aren't rare. Ones with single side doors are. Ray Breyer Elgin, IL

Bob, 40' end-door auto cars were not all that common, though certainly
not rare. I'm not an NKP maven, but I would suggest from the side
sill treatment and the fishbelly underframe that this car is a
rebuilt single-sheathed car. Perhaps someone else can confirm
this. Look at the car number though: 4321! Yours Aye,
