One of a lot of 5 steel outside braced boxcars but by the railroad in 1920. Used for storage from the end of EBT service in 1956 until 2007. At that point the Friends of the EBT stripped and rebuilt the car when it was determined combine #15 was beyond economical repair. The project was similar to the car 175 conversion but included an ADA lift for wheelchair access. The volunteer staff completed the car in time for the fall 2008 schedule. |
