I was leafing through a Model Railroader from October 1979 and noticed a Paint 
Shop article on making a CB&Q box car from an Athearn 40' AAR kit.   The only 
modifications were CB&Q decals and Allied Full-Cushion trucks, same as on troop 
sleepers.   The cars were numbered 12000-12399 and were built in the CB&Q 
Havelock, NE, shops in 1941.   This would be an easy kitbash.   What color 
would the trucks be painted?   Why were Allied trucks used in the first place - 
what type of cargo?   When would the Allied trucks no longer be used?   I model 
late 1940s and early 1950s.
