Hi Dave:
I've seen the boxcar sitting up at the museum. Next chance I get to go up
there, I'll see what I can find.
BTW, I have the numbers of a couple of waycars on display here in the
Hills.....can anybody provide the original identification on them. They are
obviously now BN cars, but which line were they original to, or are they BN
cars to begin with? The car in Hot Springs shows two different numbers:
The re-paint as a "Q" car shows number CB&Q 13675, the BN pool car number
showing through the light coat of aluminum paint is : BN 10143. The waycar
on display in Custer is number BN 12268.
