Looks like it says Pittsburg, or maybe Pittsboro, between the doors, after adjusting the contrast. Miami Cycle & Manufacturing was based in Middletown Ohio. One date shows they built bicycles 1898-1924

You just never know where you will find railroad stuff on the Internet.

I am surprised this load wasn’t shipped in a boxcar.
