Re: URTX/Milw Reefer Survivor
I saw the end of that car poking out in what looked like an alley in downtown Winona last fall. Interesting to see that it has come into the light!

Both photos are of GN35381, a 50' double door box car, judging by the writing on the inside of the doors.

Re: URTX/Milw Reefer Survivor
If I'm reading the stencil right, the last reweigh was in 1944? So, retirement from interchange might have been a bit later?

Re: Gulf Mobile & Ohio RR Boxcar #9047, a 50ft auto box, dated 1950
Hello Claus,
My apology, I must have been on auto pilot due to Bob's many postings of photographs.
Thanks for your best wishes. It seems that the kit is a can of worms with a lot of work required

I’d guess there was still the manual labor of sweeping and digging stuff out of cracks.

Re: [Non-DoD Source] [RealSTMFC] Photos: Boxcar Cleaning Equipment
gives rise to the question, what was the
last load, and what load was intended for
loading, that required an interior wash down? especially since one of the cars
is a GN boxcar
just thinking out
