This batch of cars appeared on the UP in the summer 1966 in this paint scheme. The shield includes the word “RAILROAD” which was standard for UP in the 60’s. This batch also included the small version of the reporting marks. The “automated rail way” logo had evolved over the years with this version featuring a more playful lettering style, larger map, and “CUSHIONED LOAD” replacing “CUSHION RIDE.” These cars were initially assigned for loading at a Chevy plant on the New York Central in Cleveland.
