I receive emails from Ozark Mountain Railcar from time to time. Today’s
addition included a coach that they indicate was a former CB&Q car, later used
in MOW service by the BN. Accord to the information, the car was built about
1920. My problem is that it is a paired window coach which were rare on the Q
Neither the 4500 series nor the 6100 series cars had paired windows. The only
paired windows= cars that I am aware of were numbered in the 5900 series. They
were originally steel under frame wood sided cars, some of which were later
steel sheathed. Could this car be one of those? A few of them lasted into the
late 1940s and early 1950s and some may have survived longer in maintenance of
way service. Attached below is a copy of the information sheet from Ozark
Mountain. For $22500, the car can be yours! However, because it doesn’t have
cooler bearings, it will have to be trucked from its present location.
