Western Pacific Railroad 50 foot double door box car. From the internet. a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.

I spotted this photo on the internet a while back ago, but I do not recall what sight it was on.

The Western Pacific Railroad, was one of My favorite railroads I enjoyed seeing photos of for many years. This photo, shows a slightly weathered 1970's era 50 foot double door box car. On the right of the car, is what was proboubly their last "New" version of the WP Feather River Route corporate logo. The left side of the car shows modern plain script lettering, wich was used prior to the 1982 merger and takeover by the Union Pacifixc Railroad.
