CNW 401 |
Description: |
While driving down potholed back roads outside Corpus Christi I came across a very odd sight. This heavyweight car once brought up the rear of Chicago & North Western business trains as CNW 401 "Chicago" but is now on stilts in a field not too far from the Gulf of Mexico. The hot sun and salty sea air is not treating the paint on this car well. It appears as someone is trying to build a gazebo or some sort of structure to partially cover this car. Hopefully this car gets some much needed attention before it rusts away. |

Delivered new to Cotton Belt (SP) in December 1967 by Pullman-Standard wearing this far out paint scheme perfectly suited for the 1960s. Not too many freight cars in the Espee fleet wore this scheme and I believe today only a handful remain so to catch one still earning money for Union Pacific was a nice surprise. Southbound on UP. |
