I saw them in many locations on BN with different MoW crews.  Basically they 
were steel and built in the 40's whereas equipment they replaced was old wooden 
boxcars dating to the 20's.  Ditto as steel & even a few S.S. pass cars 
replaced wood coaches in BN MoW service.  There was not a 'standard' 
construction requirement to my knowledge.  As with most RR's, ret'd revenue 
equipment still in reasonably good shape, became MoW equipment as needed inc. 
even early 86' TOFC equipment.

John

Thanks for this response. Do you know if they assigned to any particular MoW 
task, given their less than standard construction?

Most if not all were renumbered into the M of W numbers (first to CB&Q numbers 
then BN)

Does anyone know what happened to the baggage express cars 8600-8899 ( ex troop 
kitchen cars) in February 1970. Were they renumbered
into BN?
