Having Problem Identifying MILW car


S hed <shed999@...>
 

I recently found the following for Bellingham WA

http://www.downtownbellingham.com/documents/RailroadWalkingTour.pdf

If you go to the far right of page 1 and zoom in you'll see a really neat looking CM&StP bulkhead flat car. I've been trying to identify what series that car belongs to but with no luck.

Is there anyone here that can help out?

In case you are wondering, those hoppers in front of the MILW car belong to Olympic Portland Cement Co. OPCCo has a large plant on the northside of Bellingham (and on Puget Sound) and it was served by the GN and the MILW. Not sure what kind of hoppers those are though. And that plant is still in operation.

BTW, on the bottom right behind the Bellingham & Northern steam engine is a Bellingham & Northern 36' box car (they only had one series of box car, 600 to 690). And I think the car behind that is a Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound 50' automobile box car (series 206501 to 207470).
