SP 508524 |
Description: |
Built by American Car & Foundry and delivered to Southern Pacific in 1971-1972. Transferred to Golden West Service but never repainted, then returned back to Southern Pacific wearing the same scheme the car was originally delivered wearing. This car is now used in MOW service by current owner Union Pacific, quite likely to be retired having never seen the a new coat of paint. |
