Isn't this one of the WWII B-29 bomber cars?  It was placed on a flatcar.  
There are a couple of them in Council Bluffs Iowa and I think one in Lincoln 
Nebraska.

  I have posted two photos of a railroad car I spotted on W. Helm St. 
  just a few blocks west of Main Street in Brookfield, Missouri. 
  Brookfield is historic CB & Q. territory. Can anyone tell me what it 
  was used for.

  It does not seem to have been cobbled up. There doesn't appear to 
  ever have been any side entrances to the car. Rather, the only 
  visible entrance to the car was through one end. This is visible in 
  one of the photos I have posted. The other photo is of the other 
  end and seems to show some monitoring device. There is a number #74 
  in a circle visible on the car.

  The latch on the end door says "W. H. Minter".

  Thanks for any help.

  ~John
