In the June 1972 ORER they are listed with the BN cars as opposed to the WFEX cars. They are the last entry before the SP&S. So they were CB&Q instead of BREX cars.

Also, it seems the cars have an identity problem as I found them listed as reefers when I went searching at rrpicturearchjives.net. But they are only lowly insulated box cars.
