89 Foot Boxcars

[Flash Blackman]

The two 89 footers (in San Antonio) on the left have WP reporting marks. A lot of 89 foot and 60 foot boxcars come through San Antonio on UP heading to-from Mexico with car parts.

I always have liked the 89 footers... I am pretty sure that I saw the Athearn cars before I saw the prototypes. :D
