F-70-30 Flat Cars:
PFF 835000-835049 1963? PFF 835150-835199 Feb 1965 (P-3208) PFF 835200-835249 1965? PFF 835300-835549 Sep 1965 (P-3223) various renumber series: SP 520012-520410 SP 520741-520902 SP 521300-521346
These 89'-0" flat cars were built in 1963-65 by GATC as their G-89 design. Some of these cars were eventually re-marked as SP cars, but the details of the transfer are still unknown.
The car pictured below (SP 520132) is painted black. It must have been repainted by the SP, as the cars were originally delivered in PFE orange paint. It appears as though some cars were reconditioned or rebuilt and given new class suffixes as follows: F-70-30R SP 520741-520902 and F-70-30Z SP 521300-521346.
