A Door-And-A-Half car with end doors.

A Santa Fe Class Fe-K, built by AC&F in 1909 (Series 8401-8900). One of 500 cars. The Class Fe-K cars were the second, after the Fe-J class, to be built with steel underframes. The superstructure framing was wood. As a result of a rebuilding program initiated in 1935, only 107 of this class were in service by 1940. The final one car was on the live list in 1945.

Date and location unknown.
