Boxcar 40' NYC #207580

Rel 12/21 This 40" standard box car with single door and no roofwalk is green with white lettering and runs on Bettendorf trucks. Built in 1945 for New York Central, this 40" boxcar was eventually sold to the US Railway Equipment Company and rebuilt to modern standards, including removing roofwalks and cutting down side ladders. It was then leased back to NYC and painted into the Jade Green scheme where it continued for another decade in revenue service.
