This 50’ steel side fixed end gondola with low cover is painted black with large orange Western Pacific feather and yellow lettering and runs on Barber Roller Bearing trucks. Built in 1945 by Mt. Vernon Car Co. as part of series 6501-6600, this gondola is one of 10 re-numbered cars 6051-6060 that were converted to steel bar service. WP picked up part of the steel contract with the giant US Steel. They received both SRE (Standard Railway Equipment) roofs and moveable bulkheads.
