Here is an original nice prewar flat car with a wood stake load, nickel stakes and brass brakestand, nickel brakewheel and nickel journals, as well as latch couplers.
The BOX manufacturing stamp shows 1931 as the date of box manufacture. The BOX is quite nice. Strong printing and original number stamping. Still has some original tape on it. Believe it to have been a SET component as there is no sticker label on either end.
