My HP shows the same sway. I think the center of the roof on that
boxcar has collapsed.

boxcar The wonderful picture of the B&O yard in Cincinnati in 1945: https://www.american-rails.com/images/WWMILWSpud.jpg has a M-15 boxcar (door opens to the right and its couple to the hopper car) just above the shed near the flat car with the two army tanks. I enlarged the picture and the roof and the running board appear to sag in the center of the roof. Its not enough sway for a John Allen stock car model….. The nearby cars do not have the sway, so it may not be a quirk in the picture or my computer (well, it is a Dell).
