Available On: January 1, 2011

 

This 60’ excess height box car with double plug doors and waffle sides is painted box car red with white logo and lettering; it also bears white excess height masks on the ends with black lettering. It was built in December 1978 by Berwick Forge & Fabricating and runs on Barber Roller Bearing trucks. It is built with exterior posts and dual eight-foot Youngstown plug Doors. It has end-of-car cushioning and “waffle” pattern side panels indicating internal belt rails allowing for a speedy damage free delivery. This design came about in answer to the need to accommodate use of automated loading devices such as fork lifts and the stacking of tall appliance crates. The excess height enabled maximum use of space with fewer cars needed for a shipment.
