That number (except the "X") fits the OSL cars in class A-50-4. 

Could you please post the image in high resolution?

Photo of OSL X160015 taken by Eldridge Huffman (U.P. fireman) at Union Jct. (Oregon) around 1943, train eastbound, attached.

Westerfield offers an HO model kit for it #1151.

 

I’d also be interested in identification of the boxcar behind with the curved roof edges.
