High Side Gondola Number 1267

General Information

This gondola is in excellent shape and about as common as you can get with the exception of the double inside bottom corner plates on the "A" end. The lack of unused drill holes in the side sill seems to indicate that they were installed new during the rebuild. As with most of the rest of the ten stake conversions, this car has the unused holes in the center of the bottom three side boards that were originally used for the center stake.
