It appears to be an open wall made of cubby holes for parts. A pile of parts or debris is visible in the shadow.

Photo: Santa Fe Bx-3/Bx-6 Boxcar A mid-1950s scene taken at San Bernardino, CA, from the Kansas State Historical Society's archives: https://www.kshs.org/index.php?url=km/items/view/304929 I believe the boxcar in the photo is either a Bx-3 or a Bx-6, a survivor of an original group of 5,000 boxcars built between 1923 and 1925.
