Looking at the car's end, I wonder if this car was rebuilt from a boxcar? Bob Chaparro Hemet, CA

Sure was… specifically from CN 508017 in 1967 — this car was originally built by Canadian Car & Foundry in April 1930, and was an example of a CNR 1929 standard boxcar. As built, these were relatively low-roofed cars, and you can see more-or-less where the original roof line was. Ian CranstoneOsgoode, Ontario, Canada

This sucker looks like it was a double decker for beef critters rather than sheep or hogs. Just my thought from it's height, Don Valentine
