No number was visible on the outside, but on the cupola end of the car over 
the end door was BN 11025, so the thing apparently made it into the BN era.

According to Holbrook & Lorenz, BN 11025 was in Plattsmouth, NE in 1880 as B&MR 
23. It's listed as a 28-footer, so the Aurora rebuild with steel underframe 
(1924-26) would have left it with three windows per side.

I don't have any service/assignment data, but H&L show no disposition, so it 
must have still been on the BN roster as of the book's cutoff date (Jan. 1, 
1978).
