This 60’ Gunderson centerbeam flat car with opera windows is painted red with white lettering. It was built in January 1988 and runs about the nation on Barber Roller Bearing trucks. Centerbeams (or center partition flat cars) are specialty cars designed for carrying bundled building supplies such as dimensional lumber, wallboard, and fence posts. They must be loaded symmetrically, with half of the payload on one side of the centerbeam and half on the other to avoid tipping over.
