Came across this one in Lompoc, Ca one day...sitting by it's lonesome...taken May of 2002...not sure what's is disposition is now...but it is different.
Nice catch! That's an ex-DRGW cupola hack that Espee painted up in their RR Police scheme. AFAIK, 3 SP Bay Window cabeese, 1 baggage car, and the hack you have pictured got RR police paint. Neat stuff!
Have never seen or heard of such cars. Until now. Very unique! I wonder if any other RR did the same? Or if SP was the lone pioneer? Boxcab E50
