    Wow, that thing needs some TLC....
    Were any of these cars used a storage for parts?
    The UP steam crew uses a gang of older boxcars as a more secure warehouse than the wide open yard...

    About: Denver South Park & Pacific Narrow Gauge Boxcar #608

    "Built in 1880 for service on the famed Denver, South Park & Pacific railroad, this car was acquired by the Colorado & Northwestern in 1897 and used in the construction of the "Switzerland Trail". In 1904, the car was set out at Cardinal (west of Netherland) and used by the railroad as a bunk house. From the 1920's to the 1980's, #608 served as a summer cabin. Donated to the BCRHS in 2003, this is the most complete of the two or three South Park freight cars known to servive."

    That car apparently hasn't made it to LA yet...

    Rock Island heritage is clear on this one:
