Just curious- What does the stencil say at the bottom of the door?

Boxcab E50

Hmmm... a box car thread this should be interesting

I've been having problems with posting pics recently so hope this works

So, it's Milwaukee Road you want? It's Milwaukee Road you'll get. How about this beauty?

This rib-side boxcar was serving as a storage shed at a truck garage north of Heavener, OK, in the early 1990s. It has since been painted in gray. Behind this car is the KCS main line, and just to the right (and out of the picture) is the fueling pad for all KCS freights.

If I can find it, I'll post a pic of the B&O wagon-top boxcar I found on the south side of Heavener- next to it is a Rock Island cargo box.
