B-70-51 Box Cars:


	EFCX 3601-3900								(to SP 292324-292610)


These 50'-6" box cars were built by PC&F in 1970 and featured 5116 ft3 capacity and double 8' Youngstown plug doors. They were transferred to SP, repainted and renumbered as above in 1978-79. They featured an interesting vent system for carrying paper pulp. Evidence of this can be seen by the boxy structures loacted at the ends of the sides. A cable system is used to open and close the vents. Thanks to Jim Eager for information on these cars.
